Hi all,

I'm sorry for the long delay on this I've been dragged into some other
stuff :) But anyway, now it's time!!!!

I've asked the core Ironic team to narrow down the name options (we had too
many, thanks to everyone that contributed) the list of finalists is in the
poll right here: http://doodle.com/9h4ncgx4etkyfgdw. So please vote and
help us choose the best name for the new mascot!

Cheers,
Lucas
