DPaste (http://dpaste.dzfl.pl/) is a collaborative D pastebin, with integrated
compilers and VM execution environment (it can save and run code pasted
online).

DPaste is already used on the D website front page (http://dlang.org/), for the
"edit and run" widget.

This is a proposal to make it officially a part of dlang.org: promote the
website to run.dlang.org, and add a link to it on the D website (e.g. under the
"Resources" submenu). The source code can be made publicly available if
necessary.

The backend is currently hosted on my server (same server hosting the D forum
and wiki). The frontend (dpaste.dzfl.pl) is currently running somewhere else,
but I've gotten a copy running at the temporary URL
http://dpaste-fe.k3.1azy.net/ .

nazriel, the creator of DPaste, doesn't seem to have much time to work on it
lately, but has agreed to provide database dumps for the current instance.

Johnathan Marler, who worked on asm.dlang.org, has volunteered to look into
DPaste, and investigate whether it would be possible to merge DPaste with
asm.dlang.org.

  Walter / Andrei: What do you think?
