In 60 inverse-pb of data taken on the psi(3770) resonance with the CLEO-c detector, we find 8 D+ -> mu+ nu decay candidates that are mostly signal, containing only 1 estimated background. Using this statistically compelling sample, we measure a value of B(D+ -> mu+ nu) = (3.5 +/- 1.4 +/- 0.6) x10^(-4), and determine fD+=(202 +/- 41 +/-17) MeV.

    A review of BESIII charmed meson decay studies presents the most precise averages for |V_cs|, |V_cd|, D and D_s decay constants, and several hadronic form factors from combined experimental results.
