Interesting. The main key points I see coming from this. * The community wasn't helpful/consistent * Implementation problems * Being built on top of the JVM I think the D has a good community behind it, but I suppose only the new guys can really give a usable opinion. There are definitely implementation problems in D, some design issues. But as you mention, this gap is closing and at an increasing rate. D has done well with being independent but inter-operable with C.
