How about Bob? Like in Sideshow Bob, the Arch-Nemesis of Bart Simpson.

*I* didn't know what it meant.

Thanks for the explanation, Xarturkhann. :-)

I like "spiffy".
It sounds kinda cool --"I run Arch  spiffy 8) "

Miriam Webster definition:

Main Entry: spiffy
Pronunciation: 'spi-fE
Function: adjective
Inflected Form(s): spiff·i·er; -est
: fine looking : SMART <a>
- spiff·i·ly /-f&-lE/ adverb

Another definition WRT software:

Said of programs having a pretty, clever, or exceptionally well-designed interface.

  harem
       n : living quarters reserved for wives and concubines and female
           relatives in a Muslim household [syn: hareem, seraglio,

And it's also an arabic word for "illegal"

Anyway, time for Arch Linux Blackhat Edition now?

Re: Release name for Arch

How about aurauch? That word came out of my head wrt to the original "aur" concept. I'm not sure if I'm thinking of a video game character or an actual word, but I like it anyways.

Re: Release name for Arch

You're probably thinking of the Blitzball team from Final Fantasy X.

I think octopus is the best so far.

Or possibly, just to confuse people, we could call it 010 (hopefully somebody gets this joke)

Re: Release name for Arch

comment on the first post :: i wouldn't recommend Aurora because that was the name of a "lesser"  :evil:  linux in the name of frugalware....

i think a nice name would be SpAUn

why?

well, simply because,

It is called to be the birthplace of Arch's new packages.

taken from the arch wiki:aur
...

and as we all know, birth is the spawn[ing] of a being...{if that makes any sense} .. anyway, AU (arch users)
...
Vote :: Spawn !
... :twisted:
