RE: Microsoft renames its 'D' language 'M'
Well it doesn't take a genius to see why - Digital Mars has had a 'D' programming language that is essentially a reworking of C++ to fix a lot of broken stuff in that language.

What MS may not know is the MUMPS programming language is commonly known as 'M', though I think less well known (The fairly young 'D' has had a bit more buzz amongst geeks than the almost 50 year old MUMPS).
