Well, since D is garbage collected, it really exists in a different world from C++, so I'd say that no, it is not qualified to be in the running for a C++ 2.0.

  D's GC can be turned off

    I don't use D myself, but I'm curious how often someone actually does that. Is it about the same as how C++ can technically be connected with a GC? Because no one does that, despite that it is possible.
