He was jeopardizing the mission.

Just that awesome new features are planned, doesn't mean they get implemented. On of mine, and i think also of many other cpp programmsters, highly anticipated features are C++ Modules. We are waiting years already to get to a usable solution ... yet nothing has integrated into the cpp standard :3
D on the other hand has all those awesome features, and D has them now. Sometimes it's a little rough on the edges, but in general it's really great *.* I hope D will start to grow faster. And seeing it currently at Tiobe index rank 20 makes me hope that it will be way more widespread in future.
<3 D ftw xD
