I would love a copy of your presentation

I think the XOMB operating system project was a D1 project not
a D2 project.
but this may be of interest:

The XOmB Bare Bones distribution is a minimal 64 bit OS written
in D, distilled from the main project by wilkie and Steve
Klabnik.

1) Embedded programming today means freaking lot of environment
from microchips to custom hardware server clusters :) Sometimes

I have had a similar questions from my colleagues, that is
exactly why I was asked to research this topic in detail. I ll
share it when it will be done, but that won't be any soon.
XOMB is exactly on the D1 projects I was referring to, when was
asking if any more modern analogues exist :)
