Great!

Made some encouraging comments at the bottom the Wired article. I hope I got them right :)

Yes, Cade Metz (the author) did a real good job at doing his research and validating it with Walter, myself, and others. Enki is the working name of a language I was working on in 2005.

Excellent article! Best introduction to D I've ever seen.

Not only that, but it also helps dissuade the misleading belief that "Facebook is written in PHP", so I'm extra-happy with the article :)

I see in the comments that talks about sociomantic's talk on DConf,

can you upload and publish it today?
