i don't think much of it... err... rather not at all. i've had one primary programming language, C/C++, for the last 14 years (I started using C++ before any compiler even had templates!), and am now learning C# (the .NET 2.0 FCL is much better than the 1.X versions so I think it's finally a good time to learn C# now and so far I'm enjoying it).
when it comes to learning new languages the first things i worry about are... "is it going to get me a job?", "is it going to keep me employed?", and "will i still be using it 10 years from now?" i don't think D satisfies any of those so not yet, but maybe in the future?
Y-Go
well, I've being working as a system analist and programmer for 7 years, when it comes to learning new languages the first thing i worry about is.. "is it cool?" Well, I have to learn a new language on the fly almost every new project I start, so, when I can decide witch language to learn I choose the cool ones.
