History

The D programming language was started by Walter Bright, as a 'better C++' and has grown slowly, but steadily, for more than 15 years. Recent improvements to the D development process have accelerated development of the language and shown the need for a governing organization that overlooks and arranges the future development of the D programming language.

Current projects

The D Language Foundation:

holds and defends the copyright and other intellectual property rights for the D programming language.
provides resources for furthering the development and adoption of the D programming language.
awards scholarships to highly skilled students.
organizes the yearly DConf, the international annual conference of D Language developers and users.
pays for hardware costs (e.g. this website, dmd downloads, the D tour and more)
is an accepted Google Summer of Code (GSOC) organization, with projects hosted during GSOC 2016 and GSOC 2019.

Committee

The officers of the D Language Foundation are:

Walter Bright, President
Tudor Andrei Cristian Alexandrescu, Vice President and Treasurer
