Hello brave *Ubuntu users :wink:
After Warty Warthog , Hoary Hedgehog , Breezy Badger and Dapper Drake
do you wonder what will be the name of the next release ? I know I do :-k , so while
we are waiting impatiently for dapper+1 let's guess its name 8) , who knows maybe
the CodeNameOfNewRelease dude picks your suggestion , and u gonna be famous :mrgreen:
From this wiki post (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DevelopmentCodeNames), we can know the following about the codename schema:
The development codename of a release takes the form "Adjective Animal". So for example: Warty Warthog (Ubuntu 4.10), Hoary Hedgehog (Ubuntu 5.04), Breezy Badger (Ubuntu 5.10), are the first three releases of Ubuntu. In general, people refer to the release using the adjective, like "warty" or "breezy". The names live on in one hidden location---the archive release name in /etc/apt/sources.list and seen on the download mirror network.
and from History section in that post , there is an important rule:
For all of our sanity we are going to try to keep these names alphabetical after Breezy.
this makes it a bit easier :wink: , thus I believe dapper+1 will start with the letter 'E' , and here is why IMHO:
'E' alphabetically after 'D'
'E' is the 5th letter , dapper+1 is the 5th release as well...
Now, here is the game rules (any suggestions are welcomed :KS ) :
every user may participate with no more than 5 (3?) codenames .
you can't combine more than one adjective with one animal, or vise verse.
you must choose a unique name (unrepeated), but you can comment on other codenames .
I leave the prize up to you (ubuntu community) , the owner of the chosen codename maybe hold the credit of choosing it lifetime :D .
and remember there is roughly 2 months till the final release of dapper and the
immediate announcement of dapper+1 codename , so hurry!!
to make life easier , there is a list of many [ Adjective , Animal ] names available at the above
wiki post , so you can just combine 2 and voila! you get a ready ubuntu codename ;)
