As a Swiss I'm curious how the name has come to be. Is the team related to ETH Zurich?

- Scaevolus 14y agoLode Vandevenne wrote the blog post and the code. LinkedIn says he works at Google Zürich.
- DeepDuh 14y agoThanks a lot. I'm still reluctant to use LinkedIn since much of it feels like extortion to me. Btw. I'm surprised that you've found the ü character. Not even US customs/border protection let me enter my German name in the ESTA form.
- roel_v 14y agoIt's actually right in the post that he's based in Zurich.
- DeepDuh 14y agoI could be wrong, but I think it was edited in. Otherwise scaevolus would probably have pointed it out instead of going to hunt LinkedIn.
- mhroth 14y agoI guess, Zopfli might be Zöpfli, which is a kind of braided Swiss bread. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zopf http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zopf
