This is still just a rumour, we'll know the truth on Monday 
(which is today).

Some articles about the topic:

What's your opinion about that? Will you continue using GitHub?

Both GitLab and Bitbucket can be used instead to host your D 
projects - dub registry supported them for a while now.

IMHO Microsoft isn't the type of company I want to see behind the 
GitHub. Maybe I am wrong since Microsoft has both money and 
programmers to improve it further, I just don't trust them too 
much which is the right thing to do when dealing with companies. 
This means that I will move my repositories elsewhere and use 
GitHub just to contribute to other projects.
