Awesome; funding goal reached in a little less than 2 months. I 
didn't even get around to donating yet, so maybe I'll save it for 
the next one instead.

On a related note, D really needs a merch shop. I don't think I'm 
the only one that wants a shirt or mug with (a|the) D logo on it, 
or Dman. There's an entire industry that's popped up to make 
paraphernalia sales far easier in the wake of 
Youtube/Deviantart/etc. which is geared toward community-based 
projects similar to D.
