It's a lovely joke but unfortunately the word `bikeshed' already means something else in a computer/geeky context. So these things shouldn't be called bikesheds for the same reason that a computer shouldn't be called `down' or `internet'. If we want to have a punny name, they could be called some other kind of shed or hut or something. Sorry to spoil the fun. Ian.
