I rather rebrand D because it is difficult to search for D
related stuff in search engines. D is de facto "dlang" because
you cannot search for "D".
I was thinking if D is going to rename itself to "Duck", since it
is common to use duck typing in D programming. However, searching
for ducks on the internet will lead to that you really get
results about ducks, the bird so you need to use ducklang just
you need to use dlang.
