Seeing how we're currently at a name that starts with `b`, maybe it's a good time to switch to a naming scheme that orders the release names alphabetically. IOW: - choose the next, say, 50 names now. - sort them alphabetically. - throw away all those that sort before Bookworm. - done. We get our cake and eat it too. Obviously it won't fix the past (tho maybe we can use the thrown-away names at step 3 to retroactively add aliases to the old names, making their naming situation even more fun). Stefan
