Well, back in 2002 there was a probably-joking sort-of decision that
"zurg" should be the codename of the release where the Hurd and *BSD
ports were fully ready [1]. Given that we seem to be moving more towards
dropping ports than finalizing them at the moment, using the name zurg
would not seem to be in keeping with that idea.

I like the idea (and the method of choosing, and of announcing, it)
otherwise, though.
