Now I have a story to tell when people ask about the new Flash Player 9.

And last, where can I get a ZMZ t-shirt?

I also seem to remember that the name was chosen around the time that the movie came out, which all the teams went to, so it was a current topic. Finally, you listed the codenames as ZZM. Internally, we always ordered it ZMZ and in fact had tee shirts made up with that acronym.

I was kind of thinking something similiar as it is a big departure from the old flash player and on to the new. A dual ego too? The charactor Zaphod in the movie is quite weird at best.
