Unfortunately I'm only the ground segment, so D's not going to space today. But you never know what the future holds. (I did notice this the other night, https://wiki.osdev.org/D_Bare_Bones ...interesting.)

Back on Earth, I do hope my D based telemetry parser helps out a lot of missions over time. Btw, std.sumtype and dpq2 were notably useful in the work. Shout-outs to Paul and Denis are definitely in order. They get free beer from me if I'm ever lucky enough to run into either of them.

FYI, the code has been merged into the main branch already:

Just keep in mind that dependence on such a method might cause you to overlook potential higher level transformations between the two languages; especially since they have vastly different feature-sets, and D is a language where you have to consider value vs reference semantics, whereas Python… uhh… makes my head hurt.

Does any of this code happen to be open-source?

The initial code I'd like to convert isn't open-source yet, though it will have to be soon. NASA is big on open source these days. The logic being, the public paid for development, so the public should get to see it, and in the case of analysis software, verify it.

Looking down the road, the second and more difficult conversion on the horizon is currently still a CGI web-service: dasFlex. That one will take more careful attention as I'll likely go with a fiber based model and will likely require a fully manual re-write, though it is an example of work-a-day application code for a converter to chew on.

You might want to check out Mojo. It’s great for modernizing Python code and offers high performance with Python interoperability

Mojo is interesting, though note that 'the language is evolving rapidly and source stability is not guaranteed':
