I wonder if  Copr could be used to create a Fedora project repository for all the D bits and pieces in the way that D-Apt does things for Debian?

Is it really worth the effort?
We're already releasing rpm's and dub will cope for the rest, we'll include it in the release at some point.

It's minimal effort, and you could make the same reasoning for "We're already releasing deb's and dub will cope for the rest". The idea is to allow Fedora users to add one repository, and then get updates when they come out, as opposed to having to go back to dlang.org and download a new RPM every time.
