Congratulations! I got a copy even though I'm not really using Tango...
(although there some kind of "compat mode" going on with wxD for it)

Saved the planet and the trees and some waiting by getting the eBook.
Now onwards to actually upgrading my Mac version of Tango to "Frank".

That's fabulous!
But something has got to be wrong here.
The price of the ebook is only $10!?

I guess I'll just have to buy extras and give the others away.   And I 
don't even use Tango!

Congrats on the first D book!

Congratulations!

Of course, your book will not be fully realized until there are reported 
errata.  In order to help you achieve the dream of a fully realized book, 
I have submitted an erratum to the book's web page at Apress.  On page 5, 
line 12 the file name hello.d mistakenly appears "print.d".  The 
compilation instructions at line 22 has the correct file name.

When I was a TA, I would tell my students that, as a pedigogical tool, I 
would slip errors into my lectures.  I told them that this was a good 
pedigogical tool because recognizing errors was an important elelment in 
understanding the material.  I also told them that employing this 
pedagogical tool required no effort whatsoever on my part.  Unfortunately, 
that is about as funny as my jokes got.  For the sake of my students, I 
eventually got a real job.

Many of you probably already picked up on this, but the book is now shipping
from Amazon.

I suppose it's also worth mentioning that the info about the book on
Amazon is still a bit screwed up.  The publisher is aware of the issue
and is doing what they can to resolve it.  It seems to be a technical
problem on Amazon's end at the moment.
