Hi guys,

I'm love the podcast by the way. As I have nothing to do before I go off to uni, I've been slowly working my way backwards through the episodes, and I've found out quite a lot from them. I think Josh metioned one episode that he'd read why Edgy Eft alpha releases are called knot, but didn't explain it and said he'd put it in the show notes, but I've not been able to find it (I can't even remember which episode it was). Could you give me a link to it please?
Keep up the good work with the podcast - I'm sure it'll continue to get even better.
Thanks

Luke

The full name of the next release is "Edgy Eft", an eft being a young newt. A knot is a group of newts. Similarly, Dapper development releases
were called "flights" and Breezy Badger dev releases were called "colonies".
