Re: How many people here use stackoverflow.com?
Reply to hasen, If I have some questions about D, should I ask on stackoverflow instead of here? Are there enough D'ers there? If the question has an answer, yes. If your lookig for discussion, no, ask it here. [...] So, do you regularly visit http://stackoverflow.com/ or no? I do.

If I have some questions about D, should I ask on stackoverflow instead of here? Are there enough D'ers there? I personally think that asking there would bring more public attention to D, but it all depends on whether there are enough people there who know about D. For instance, I might have a couple of question about gtkD, as I'm trying to play with it right now. So, do you regularly visit http://stackoverflow.com/ or no?
