We have calculated the magnetic dipolar spin-relaxation rates of magnetically trapped doubly-spin-polarized atomic deuterium gas. The results are expressed in a simple closed formula describing the dipolar-relaxation-limited stability in the Boltzmann (TTF), the degeneracy (TTF), and the crossover (TTF) regimes. In the degeneracy regime we typically find lifetimes of some hours. We also discuss the dipolar decay of magnetically trapped spin-polarized fermionic alkali-metal atoms.
