yeah, sorry about that. we use to pronounce it with a long o, but most people would pronounce it 'zahbnee' so we changed the pronunciation. However, we didn't want to change our little mascot dude or the logo. Even in a 1 1/2 year old startup we have legacy. weird.

Thanks for the clarification.

At RailsConf 2007, David Heinemeier Hansson started a sentence with something like "If you have---I can't believe I'm saying this---a legacy Rails app..."

I like the long o version better, myself. Zahbnee sounds a lot like zombie. Probably not the best association . . .
