If I have some questions about D, should I ask on stackoverflow instead of here? Are there enough D'ers there? I personally think that asking there would bring more public attention to D, but it all depends on whether there are enough people there who know about D. For instance, I might have a couple of question about gtkD, as I'm trying to play with it right now. So, do you regularly visit http://stackoverflow.com/ or no?

More D visibility on stackoverflow would be nice. Post it there then link to it here so people will find it. I only visit stackoverflow when googling takes me there. --bb

someone should write a bot to do that automatically. Kinda like for the bugzilla.

I use the feed at http://stackoverflow.com/feeds/tag/d to keep an eye on any D questions as they pop up. -- Daniel

So they cant just insert an if statement on the line before to check for exact match before trying the search?

No, not really. There's a lot of thing about it I don't like, so I never use it.
