Just wondering how the names are decided, and who decides them. Anyone heard any rumors? Anyone have any guesses?

The rumor is Edgy Elephant is going to be the new name of Dapper+1. We won't really know that for sure until Dapper is released.

Edgy Elephant? Sounds like a round circle... weird.

The names are chosen by the Community Council and Technical Board including Mark Shuttleworth, from the list here:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DevelopmentCodeNames

Last week there was some talk made in the TB meeting about dapper +1, and Edgy Elephant is a current favourite amongst the TB and some CC members, but it isn't decided yet. Mark does say in that document on the wiki that he will attempt to keep it alphabetical where possible.
Edgy is also a characteristic for the next release as it seems it is a new point release containing a lot of beta software that could be unstable.

Which means we skipped A and C already - so far so good
