Ask a D developer you appreciate (in private) to give you his 
paypal/email, and pay him directly like he's a musician on the 
side of the road. He will be motivated by this simple gesture of 
receiving the few dollars, his happiness is going to reflect 
through his open source work, and the D community will benefit as 
a whole. It would probably help if D developers put a donations 
paypal link on their README.md, but I think most people have such 
a grim outlook on making money from the open source work, that 
they don't even take the time to put that link on there.
