# The D Language Foundation

#### The D Language Foundation is an organization devoted to advancing open source technology related to the D programming language.

### 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 foundation

- is providing the various resources for the D community (e.g. this website, dmd downloads, the D tour and more)
- is an accepted Google Summer of Code organization and hosts four projects during the summer of 2016.
- is organizing the yearly D conference

### Committee

The officers of the D Language Foundation are:

- Walter Bright, President
- Tudor Andrei Cristian Alexandrescu, Vice President and Treasurer
- Ali Çehreli, Secretary

### Becoming a member

Individual and corporate membership packages will be announced in the future.
