Hello,


Exciting times! DConf 2015 will take place May 27-29 2015 at Utah Valley University in Orem, UT.

The call for submissions is now open at http://dconf.org. Please mind the submission deadline: February 27, 2015.

We are hoping to build a strong program with the help of D established luminaries who spoke at previous editions of DConf, as well as up-and-coming contributors. So please send us your submissions soon. There's a good deal of progress and strength building in our community as of late, and you can make the conference reflect it.


Good luck!

Andrei

Reddit downvotes seem to be the most arbitrary things on the Internet. I don't understand them at all.

r/programming seems to be have become fairly hostile to new
submissions, but the post is 7th on the front page at this time,
and you can have my upvote :)
