As mentioned I wrote to the Github support about the "dlang" namespace:

I took a look at the account in question [dlang], and it doesn't appear
that it is dormant (not all activity on GitHub is public).
With that in mind, there would be no way for us to transfer
this name to you without permission from the owner of it.

Aw. How are we doing on that front (contacting Daniel Lang)?

However I still have a bright message for you:

It looks as though the **d-lang** account you found is being squatted. I've gone ahead and released this username now, so you'll be able to
create an organization with that username now.
You'll want to grab that username quickly — it's available first-come,
first-served. Let me if there's anything else I can do to help!

Great!

Did that - that's why a couple of guys got an invitation.
So if we want to move to "d-lang", it is as easy as:

1) Delete the reserved "d-lang" namespace
2) Press on rename at D-Programming-Language
3) Recreate D-Programming-Language (and _avoid_ creating repos here)

What about API calls? Wouldn't want to break the autotester.

@Cybershadow in case of a positive decision, do you want to be the "trigger guy"?

I don't have the necessary privileges on https://github.com/D-Programming-Language. Andrei would probably want to do this.
