D in Torun (Poland)

Hello, I was waiting a while to write this post, because I needed to gather all the data.

Since November, team0xf organized D workshops at our university. The attendants were students and staff working at the university. For those of you who know Polish, there are videos and presentations from the workshops on the workshop page.

That was the mid-phase of D expansion at our university - the first step was our project, Deadlock, which made people start asking about D etc. The final phase began this semester. "Programming in D" is now an official course. Despite the fact that it is a "subject of choice", over 100 students subscribed and now are attending lectures and laboratories.

Also, D is considered as an equal language to other languages on other classes, so we are all able to code projects in it like in c++, java or python.

Team0xf is cooperating with a lecturer - dr Rafal Bocian - so the class is up to date. The runtime library used during labs is Tango. Labs are conducted by dr Rafal Bocian and MC Leszek Rybicki, who was most helpful with workshop organization.
