Maybe it's time we categoriesed it? I kind of feel this isnt the right place to
be posting newbie questions - more of a compiler architecture discussion?

Not trying to flame or anything, but how do you identify "newbie" questions?
What's newbie for you may not be for someone else. What's newbie for me may
not be for you. Maybe for you it's newbie asking "how do I build a DLL in
D?", but for some it may not be.
Besides, think about this: newbies can learn from experienced, and
experienced can open their minds. How? Well... Some newbie can ask a really
odd question, and thus make someone investigate in order to answer it. Both
will learn eventually.
But that's just me.

Well, i can distinguish following discussion directions:
 - current state of D compilers, bugs, "how-to", and so on, "specific stuff";
 - computer-science related things and blurp in respect to the future of D compilers and language, "general stuff".

That sounds good.  Something along the lines of "feature-request", "bug-reports", etc.

i was referring to my newbie questions. i am not from a c/c++ background, and seem to be posting the most basic questions on this board, so was just wondering if there was a better place. -apparently not yet

Ok, then the two of us could have a little contest to see who is more
newbie. ;-) What do you say? :-D
