Hello!
My first post to this newsgroup was a little bit more than 6 months ago
and today I've decided to leave D and use C(P)ython + Qt for our
open-source project of writing multi-platform desktop application.
The D community is very nice and supportive, Walter, Andrei co. are
working hard,

If you're going with Python and Qt, I'd wholeheartedly recommend this
book: http://www.qtrac.eu/pyqtbook.html
Yeah...I just got reply from Mark if he is planning

Well, http://d-programming-language.org/ page says: D is a
multi-paradigm programming language that combines a principled
approach with a focus on

For what it's worth, the examples from Mark's book still compile with
Python 2.7 and the latest PyQt bindings. And PyQt itself comes with
examples that are stored in Python\lib\site-packages\pyqt4\examples\ .

If you build a desktop application, D isn't the best choice, but you
can still argue to your boss to use it instead because of your
personal productivity issues. There's no other logical reason to
use D instead of C++/Qt or

Frankly, if your definition of not ready is that the compiler isn't
packaged for you, D isn't the right community to begin with.
First of all, there is no 64bit compiler for FreeBSD. I was
researching about gdc and Iain

But you've opened this topic because D2 is not ready, and now you want
to switch to Python 3 which might not be ready yet as well? E.g. see:

My view, is the D community right now are thinking long and hard about
their own needs, and less of the needs of their users. (For a
language, the application programmer IS the user.) Maybe even rightly

I'm running Free/PC-BSD desktop now, and here is dmd-2 experience:

help D to get more accepted in the buisiness world, one requirement
