Read the paper. D is a huge achievement by any account.

Thanks to COVID-19, access is free through June 30.
I very much enjoyed reading this paper. Thanks!

Interesting history! Did Eric Niebler lose interest in D? I didn't realize he was involved early on.

Great read. Many thanks for the time spent writing out the origin story of a wonderful language.

Many, thanks to you, too!
Just found the time to read it (again).
What I think is worth mentioning as additional milestones, is the setup of code.dlang.org (DUB >1800 packages now) and the online tutorial - Dlang Tour: tour.dlang.org with the embedded D compiler.

Thank you. Printed and started reading today before work. A lot of interesting insights about the rationale behind design decisions. For a non C/C++ programmer, this helps me better understand D and it's close relationship with these languages. Cool stuff.
