Željko,

I have installed Ruby+Watir for people who are very talented programmers but
do not speak English, so I have adopted the Portuguese pronunciation with
them.

The correct pronunciation is not so important to me, I prefer spreading the
word about the tool than teaching people how to call it properly :)

Pronunciation can be confusing even for natives, so I think there shouldn't
be a long discussion about this.

Did you know people discussed whether C# was pronounced as "See Sharp" or
"See Hash" when it was announced? :)

FK
