Yes D2 is what current D version used to be called when D1 was still around, about 10 years ago.

D3 is the mythical version that would fix all D shortcomings, keeps being talked about when we have those long community rants, but that is about it, there is no project going on.



In many peoples interpretation D3 will be https://d3js.org/.


It's fine in that case since that's a framework and not a language.


Even If no body name it now as "D2", creating a totally unrelated project called "D2Lang" would generate a lot of confusion with D and "Dlang"


Maybe people should stop naming things after single letters in the alphabet? Just an "out there" idea, I know.
