Hi D

Just a minor note. My simple bindings for the NASA Common Data Format (CDF) library are listed on the user supplied software page:

https://cdf.gsfc.nasa.gov/html/user_supplied_sw.html (scroll down)

The library itself is absolutely nothing to crow about. The only useful thing it does is provide real functions for what is largely a C macro based low-level interface, but it's nice to see D mentioned on a NASA site.

Maybe someday I'll have time to write a pure D implementation of CDF handling to support threaded web services, but for now simple bindings are a start.

So now we can add NASA in the list of organisations that use D, right?...

Well not quite yet*, but it is supporting a few payloads on some rather well known robotic spacecraft.
