Seeing as Rust is more or less a direct competitor to D, this is somewhat worrying. This suggests that the Rust devs (by that I mean people in the community that submit pulls) are able to iterate far faster than we are, and the gap between D and Rust is quickly closing.

Also AFAIK Mozlla has a team of paid full-time programmers working on it, something D can only dream about. |
