Where to go from here?
--

The D-Man has already found its way into some of our 
documentation pages:


http://dlang.org/overview.html
http://dlang.org/spec/iasm.html
http://dlang.org/spec/contracts.html

and I argue that it helps to make those pages more unique, vivid 
and memorable!
Imho we should start to embrace the D-Man as our official mascot 
(like the Gopher for Go) and many of the specification pages (and 
the new Dlang Tour pages) would profit from similar drawings.
This is not intended to spark a huge discussion, as I am quite 
aware that some see the D-man as childish and a negative way to 
represent D, but for more "professional" use cases we have the 
awesome, new D icons from Sociomantic.


Get involved


It's proposed to use #DLangMan in the future, s.t. English 
readers can also enjoy the D-Man content. Moreover there are some 
Twitter accounts that are extraordinary D-man evangelists:

https://twitter.com/d_man_bot (retweets D-Man content)

As mentioned I don't speak Japanese, so I would be quite 
interested if someone from this movement could explain the 
history or give a better summary.
