The base of the current D logo fits these specs I think.

Unless I'm misunderstanding, DConf logo aren't intended to be reused over years.

They don't need to stand the test of time like the D logo (which is a topic already discussed at length, let's not derail), so it was my understanding it could be a bit more "unsafe".

Yeah, I was thinking more along the lines that; at a glance it should be apparent that this is the same D as dlang.org, not that it should be the exact same. There must be some awesome things that are specific to Berlin, and possibly D in Berlin which could be used for the creative process.

These things can be used as inspiration I don't mean to distract or detract from your work, more like a friend of the community giving input that no-one has given as yet.
