D man is fun, but ugly. However, the dragoon is already used, and I think it is better to have a friendly mascot, this dragon look sharp and agile, but not very friendly :D
BTW, having a nice mascot for D is something I definitively think is good.

I'll post something when I get it ready for consumption. :-) T -- Spaghetti code may be tangly, but lasagna code is just cheesy. |
