We will continue to use Toy Story character names for lenny's successor,
which will be called ``squeeze'' (three-eyed space alien).I think Debian are trying to rival Ubuntu's great names. :P

Or the other way around, maybe... Debian was here first. But anyway, nothing can beat "potato" :D

What about "Debian Little-Green-Army-Guys"?

Strikes me as just about the dumbest name they could have come up with.

How many toys with names are there in the movie? Will we run out of them in 2014 or something?

Squeeze sounds just fine. Surely it's no more stupid than Breezy Badger.

Both are brilliant. Much better than the Fedora ones, at least.

Fedora Core 1: Yarrow
Fedora Core 2: Tettnang
Fedora Core 3: Heidelberg
Fedora Core 4: Stentz
Fedora Core 5: Bordeaux
Fedora Core 6: Zod
Fedora 7: Moonshine
Fedora 8: Werewolf
Fedora 9: Sulphur
Fedora 10: CambridgeWell its nice to have a pattern of some kind IMO. Then again picking totally random things ensure you never run out of names...

"Squeeze" makes it sound all soft and cuddly and cute and ... oh, sorry, flashback to 9 years old there.

Bordeaux was great, though ;)

(It's a city in France where I happen to have been born in ;))

I wonder if there is a secret plot involving Cambridge University and OSS for the latest release ...

Some distro should use the elements for their release names. That would be awesome :)
