digitalmars.D - Is there something like Grand Central Dispatch for D?

Hello,

I'm looking for something like Grand Central Dispatch (GCD) for
D. GCD is a library that allows for parallel programming by
adding functions/lambdas to queues, where each queue has a thread
on its own, see
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grand_Central_Dispatch

There is http://hawtdispatch.fusesource.org/ for Java, but
porting it quickly to D might take some time...

Thanks for any hints,
Bienlein

D has:

http://dlang.org/phobos/std_parallelism.html
http://dlang.org/phobos/std_concurrency.html

I think std.parallelism is closest to GCD.
