Right, and the original reason for the long form name was how google indexed
things.

Okay - so this long name is purely due to historic reasons.
How about we move forward and change it to `d-lang`? So that the name and domain
match again :)
I am happy to push this, contact the Github support and change links.

Is someone of the core team interested in helping this move?
As mentioned redirects for the repos are automatically created, so the web page
and git automagically continue to work.
We could fix a specific date & time, just in case something goes wrong.

I'm willing to go forward with that if there's a swell of support for it. But for consistency's sake it should be dlang, not d-lang.
