It'll also cause disruption in that google won't find it when

There should really be a README in the root of the repo so
that GitHub displays
some information about the project. That would solve the "d
programming" issue
and make it more discoverable in general.
Not really. Having "d programming" in the URL gives it a much
higher ranking.
Not really. It used to be so, but (not so recently) Google
changed that and in my experience (I do all-things-web for
living, and I'was also doing SEO when it was new and trendy)
good, semantic content gives much stronger ranking than domain
name / URL.
So, README with "d programming" in root of each repo (and repo
description) will be at least as good as having "d programming"
as a part of URL.
Also, adding schema.org microdata to dlang.org would make the
site more discoverable and results would me more presentable.
If there is an interest in pursuing this goal I would be glad to
help with restructuring and even rewriting complete HTML/CSS of
dlang.org.
I know that this would not be an easy thing to accomplish but I'm
willing to try and I would of course appreciate any help I could
get. Especially because I have bad track record of finishing
things on which I work alone :)
