I know there are several tools around to import libraries from other languages. For example dstep or swig.

Is there any tool that we can use to export D to other language? Something like SWIG but d-based rather than c/c++ based. Anyone?

It would be great (for example) to @annotate classes/struct/method/function to export and have a php/python/.net library (or anything else) to use.

I guess a double step is needed: D -> C interface -> XXX classes.

This seems to be a D -> python !

a D <-> python even!

annotations would be a nifty enhancement, something like

@python_expose
class Foo {
    @python_expose
    public void bar() {
    }

    // no expose
    public Fizz baz() {
    }

}

maybe?
