Are there any plans to cut a new version of Andrei's book at some point? I keep meaning to find some time to work thorugh it, but it's getting quite out of date (Was current with 2.010 or something, I think)
I don't think the language has really changed enough to warrant a new version of The D Programming Language[1]. I highly recommend reading Andrei's book even for people who have no intention of actually using D. It's just a really good read for anyone that has even the slightest interest in programming language design because its filled with the rationale behind every design decision and Andrei is a good writer.
I'm doing a technical review of an upcoming book on D that I believe should be coming out the latter half of this year.
I think that link rather proves rather than disproves my point...the erratta list is almost one per page, and the mailing list post you linked to is from over 2 years ago.
A new run to fix mistakes would be nice but I don't think the publisher would jump at that since there isn't much motivation for current owners of the book to buy a version that is largely the same but with typos and other mistakes fixed.
