yes please. I've read the book "the d programming language" and got all excited until I actually tried using std.algorithm. (d made up for it pretty soon). It are the huge problems that prevent people for trying a language but it are those little things that scare them back away.
Thanks for confirming my long held suspicion.
And I've also been a bit disappointed in the d way of doing things (it's easy to write good code but hard is always possible).
Could you rephrase that? I don't understand.
Just for fun I wanted to create a program as little as possible, compiled without garbage collector/phobos/... and it turned out that compiling without garbage collector is pretty much impossible (memory leaks all around the place in druntime). dynamic linking for the d standard library would be a great new option for a dmd release in the future :).
Using D without GC is an interesting direction, and dynamic linking should be available relatively soon.
