This guy might have a point, 'dsss' is not a name that sticks.  And it 
doesn't exactly roll off the tongue.  I think it would be nice to give 
what might become a central tool for D users a more branding-friendly 
everyday name.  And one that is easier to pronounce.

So I'd like to suggest 'dsoft' as the new name.  Simple and descriptive, 
almost to the point of being boring.  It's only two syllables, and 
completely without any puns.

$ dsoft net install mango
