It is not a requirement for no reason. You do not want to force 
users of your D application to install a D compiler, runtime 
source, etc, on every client machine, do you? Instead you would 
probably install just the runtime itself as a package.

I have followed your recommendation regarding GitHub - now there 
is no need to host source packages elsewhere. Thanks for that.
