Awesome, thanks!

Votes are sitting at 649 as I'm writing this. Organizing by top 
ideas currently puts D support near the top of page 2.

Just a side note, looking at the main page of dlang.org, I don't 
see  any reference to who's using/contributing to D, or a link 
thereto.

I think it would help a lot of the logos of the D language's top 
sponsors could be seen somewhere on the main page. Maybe along 
the bottom as "Proud D users" or something. The top ~10 sponsors 
could be chosen based of the dollar amounts or man hours 
contributed.

C++ has "Gold members" on their about page:
https://isocpp.org/about

Rust has a "Team" page:
https://www.rust-lang.org/team.html

Python has success stories:
https://www.python.org/about/success/

I could probably find more, but suffice it to say, it's a common 
occurrence.
