Isn't this the killer "app" for D (like ROR for Ruby, etc.) ?  There was
a thread a while ago where someone said the popularity of a language
depends on an app that drives the use of that language.

Yes, D on Android would be great.

In fact, D already runs on Android if you do some tweaks to the GDC build. I've managed to get D apps running on both a Galaxy Tab 10.1 and an Efika MX.

Really? Where is the toolchain, and why isn't it available/mentioned on d-p-l?
