On: Why don't we rewrite the Linux kernel in C++?

I think it would be more interesting to do it in D.

With... automatic memory management? What? That's the last thing that I think would help.

[w1ntermute → Locke1689]

Manual memory management is also possible in D (http://www.digitalmars.com/d/2.0/memory.html).

Didn't know that, thank you. Learn something new every day.

In Java. Not the language, but the VM, that would be interesting.

[wglb → access_denied]

Maybe better would be llvm.
