LulzBot Development Naming

Because we will often change the name of a product late in the development cycle, we use in house nicknames for all development projects. The LulzBot TAZ line of printers are named after trees, the LulzBot Mini line is named after flowers, the TAZ 6 and previous printer accessories are named after fish, and the Mini 1 accessories are named after birds. Accessories that are compatible with the LulzBot Mini 2 and any future LulzBot TAZ-style printers are named after butterflies and moths. Here's a guide to help you associate the development names with actual products.
