we pushed 2 new projects:

a native kafka driver to work with the vibe.d eventloop
http://code.dlang.org/packages/kafka-d
it's not full featured yet (no zookeeper) but the basic use cases work fine.
throughput depends on the buffer sizes but we achieved gigabit speeds in benchmarks.
thanks to Piotr for most of the implementation.

after unsuccessful C bindings to redis hyperloglog datastructure i came to
the conclusion that a linear probabilistc counter should be sufficient for many use cases.
even contains some optimizations for UUID.
thanks Ilya for the implementation:

http://code.dlang.org/packages/lincount

The news on Kafka are really great! Thanks a lot for the work! Did you inform the Kafka developers that there is a new language supported? Maybe this could be added to this Wiki page which lists all supported libs and languages: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/Clients.

Regards,
André

Not yet, i have too little outside feedback yet. So please test and fill tickets with bugs/feature requests on gh
