The C++ standardization committee has set 2009 as the target date for the version of the language standard. And a lot will change. C++09 will include at least two major core features -- rvalue references and type concepts -- and plenty more relatively minor features.

So in one issue (the GC) the D apologist claimed that he listed C++ as not having because it isn't included in the standards but in another issue (string, vector) he claimed that he listed C++ as not having because, although it is very much part of the standards, it isn't part of the core language.
Don't you find it a bit dishonest that the author of the comparison arbitrarily claims that C++ doesn't have something that it indeed has just because the author feels like it? And what does it say about the D programming language itself if the D authors are only capable of pushing it by lying about C++'s capabilities?
