Again, there has been some discussion on that already:

That I'm not sure , but for what it's worth, 'd' is listed in the FSF directory:

http://www.gnu.org/directory/sysadmin/Configuration/d.html

If there are still specific issues that I have yet to clarify, could they be stated so 
that they can be addressed?  Frankly, there are other packages I'm considering 
proposing, but I've been holding them back to see if this is ever going to move 
forward or not.  It would be nice to get a conclusion to this soon, if possible.  
Thanks!
