Everybody interested can grab it here: http://www16.brinkster.com/evilone666/

Contains the winsock2.h completely (well, almost =)) translated to D module, including macroses. Also there are two simple socket programs written in D using this module - HTTP client and TCP/UDP daytime server.

More to follow...

Oh yes, many thanks to Walter for support! =)

Most excellent. This may be enough incentive to get me
to start playing with the compiler.

Will it be even more incentive if I say that I've almost
completed the translation of core WinAPI headers (all
stuff that resides in kernel32, user32 and gdi32, plus
all macroses in the appropriate files)? Actually, it's
ready, but there were some conflicts with Phobos so
till we settle it with Walter I'll hold them in. =)

Oh yes, OpenGL is not so far as well =)

...be still my heart!

In other news, I gave two weeks notice at my job today. Nothing
else lined up immediately (but a promising interview on Friday),
and a wife who makes more money than I do, so no horrible time
pressure to get back to work (the sooner I go back to work, the
sooner we can buy a house, is all). Thus, some free time, in
which I may be able to get some D experimentation in. It's on
the list just above playing Counter-Strike and just below making
music and making programs to make music. :)
