So what's the policy on this? Which tools can be added to dlang.org? I 
have a tool, DVM [1], for installing DMD. It's cross-platform, allows 
you to install and switch between multiple versions of DMD. Doesn't 
require any updates when new releases of DMD come out. It just works.

Should I create a pull request and add instructions and a link to it?
