Re: Release name for Arch

I'd name it ElasticDog...but maybe that's just me 

What about: 0.8 Halcyon

Re: Release name for Arch

How about a poll?

Can't think of a nice name right now, tho.

Re: Release name for Arch

Yeah, the naming of the release will be an executive decision - this whole debate is a waste of bandwidth!

Re: Release name for Arch

I got a question though Phil, why'd you guys put that they were looking for names in the newsletter if you didn't want contributions. ;-)

I think it should be personified, and called Bjaurn.

Re: Release name for Arch

Archaeopteryx?

(Getting ready to fly...)

Nahh, that should be the 1.0 release.

i doubt that there will be a 1.0 release. because of the rolling-release system, there will rather be a 0.10 release instead.

there has already been a 0.1 release though

3 days later and i finally get it. :oops:
rolling release means going through the release numbers over and over again. Please forgive me cmp for my incompetence and my lack of humor. I don't even know if I spelled incompetence right. Argh, what's wrong with me? :oops:

Re: Release name for Arch

how about Octopus; it's an animal and it echoes the 0.8 release number nicely

or for something completely different...

aletheia

which in classical Greek means unconcealment, or simply truth

Mullet

It's a fish AND a stylish hairdo.

May I remind you that means "business in the front, party in the back"?
