It was confusing to me because LGS used the term "Gold" on the second release of Thief 1 and I never saw it's use in any other instance in the video game industry.

I understand that. In software development, though, the "gold" build used to be the one that was deemed ready to release, although at least in my circles it went out of style over a decade ago.

Yeah, there used to be a site called gonegold.com that would post news on any game that was finished and about to be released.

That gonegold.com site is now some sort of Japanese site. :) Anyway sorry if I got anyone excited. :o :)
