Memory safety in D is the usual definition - making memory corruption impossible.
There's no notion of "borrowing" in D nor any notion of "only one mutable access at a time".
I guess your original comment was maybe meaning how D enforces (the "normal" definition of) memory safety differs to Rust? In any case, I read over both of those, and, to me, they both seem to essentially be a slightly less general version of Rust's scheme (possibly independently invented), rather than something very different. I'm interested to hear how you think they specifically differ to Rust.
