Given Gruber's love of all things Bond, I respect that the name comes from the first Bond girl (and great cocktail) Vesper Lynd.

Edit: Ah, their company's name is "Q Branch" which is the division that provides all of Bond's gadgets.


That's playing a dangerous game, using multiple references to an existing property.

Imagine someone creating "Imperial Studios" that released their new "Luke" and "Darth" apps.


Yes. The company is called Q Branch.


I'm pretty sure it's a Bond reference.

Supporting data: - Gruber is a huge James Bond fan - Vesper (Lynd) - vesperapp.co makes a reference to QBranch


It's the name of James Bond's signature martini. The LLC's name, Q Branch, refers to the R&D wing of MI6.


This guy is living my dream.


BEHOLD!!!

A buggy server for a buggy game. Sounds like an adventure.


Yes, but not in excess.
