Bummer, they didn't use the screen cap video I sent, so there's no code shown or anything for quite long sections, which makes it quite hard to follow :(

Who would be the best person to contact about this?

I guess that would be Andrei, or Chuck from UVU.

I don't use reddit, but I think it'd go over well there and be good publicity for D.

Certainly, while concepts may have their uses, there are cases where they simply don't work, and if you try and make all metaprogramming conform to them, you're going to lose out on a lot of power and flexibility. Concepts simply don't scale well enough. - Jonathan M Davis
