Why I use the D programming language for scripting

I've never used D but this really makes me want to give it a shot. Did anyone try it, and would you recommend using it?

Is it still closed source? What is the reason?!

I think it is Open Source now, see https://github.com/dlang/dmd

AFAIK the backend is based on the Zortech C/C++ backend and Walter Bright had to get permission from Symantec to relicence as Open Source.

I see, makes sense.
