Fabrice Bellard is a programming star that never ever gives talks. But it would probably be interesting.

I know Bartosz Milewski was once involved in D2's design, it would be interesting to see what he thinks of D now. I'm not sure what other people think of him, but I'd personally regard him as a "industry luminary."

I know Kent has some interest in D (I did some pair programming with him to teach him the basics). It may be worth asking him.

Markus Perrson - Notch.
No idea if we can get him or not. But he is pretty notable!
Alternatively Michael Garbage - livecoding.tv CEO.
Give me a shout out, if you want me to enquire!

I know it's an extremely long shot but Brian Kernighan. I mean why not? Most of the people suggested here don't know anything about D, and who wouldn't want to watch that talk?

I don't know about that. Recently that company has gotten some very bad (and deserved) press in the programming world https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10486476 |

Rob Pike comes to mind. He can tell us about the state of system programming languages.

I'm well aware.
I've talked to Michael and I side with him.
It was a combination of misinformation and miscommunication. Actions are being taken to prevent such occurrences in the future. Which is the correct course of action.
