Not much is changing there. From dlang.org: please note: D1 will be discontinued effective December 31, 2012 This doesn't mean that D1 will stop working. It just becomes more stable :-}
Re: Is D Language mature for MMORPG Client ?
Wow! The answers here aren't very encouraging for new D users.

Don't know about this, but Programming in Go is a bad book (talks about OO in Go and the author was clearly paid by number of words) but has a higher ranking on Amazon than The D Programming Language. And all the news sites and programmer blogs are nearly silent regarding D. Maybe this changes after Polanski finishes his movie about D. ;-)

jerro a...@a.com wrote: I would expect the abbreviations that rust uses to be perfectly readable once you know the langauge. There is a lot of noise (lot of special characters) in Rust code. Together with short keywords like fn for function definition. It's hard to see a structure in it. You can read JAPHs, too, if you know Perl. But your brain parses it character for character. Rust is a bit better, though.

bearophile bearophileh...@lycos.com wrote: On default in Rust types are immutable. If you want the mutable type you need to annotate it with mut in some way. Rust designers seems to love really short keywords, this is in my opinion a bit silly. On the other hand in D you have keywords like immutable that are rather long to type. So I prefer a mid way between those two. Short keywords are only important with barebones editors like a default vi. Nobody would use this for real development.

Only problem I see: There's no version number in the address. I guess it's always the current version. You could lose some visitors when the current version hits 2.0 :-) (jQuery 2.0 won't support old browsers like Internet Explorer 8.)
