Daily downloads of dmd are in a bull market:

I wondered if it might be possible to break these out by region
and OS. I guess if Andrei were to make public the script that
parses the download logs and produce the picture, somebody else
could submit a pull request to break it down if they wished.
Might also be interesting to break down by other criteria as
per subject. Eg if you see people at Goldman Sachs and Morgan
Stanley start to download, that's something interesting to
know. (Not that one should publish such numbers, but by very
broad category eg investment banks, asset managers, etc it
might be interesting).
There are OS stats for ldc, look at the last major release 1.1.0:

dmd probably has a different distribution, but this gives you
some idea.
