Codename

For a few versions now we've been saying "this is the last version before we start Jupiter". Well, the planet of fire has risen once again from the ashes.

[From Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phoenix)]

Said to live for 500 or for 1461 years, the phoenix is a male bird with beautiful gold and red plumage. At the end of its life-cycle the phoenix builds itself a nest of cinnamon twigs that it then ignites; both nest and bird burn fiercely and are reduced to ashes, from which a new, young phoenix would arise.
