None of these links explains the actual choices, they just explain how the games works and what the connections are. Explaining the *name* doesn't mean to explain that Heidelberg is a City in the German state of Baden-Württemberg but why Heidelberg was chosen in favor of any other city in Baden-Württemberg. > The Fedora Release name process has become much more open compared with > Red Hat Linux ( http://www.smoogespace.com/documents/behind_the_names.html ). > > Even during the RHL era.

While I have to admit that the connection is a little week this time, the name itself is easy to explain. It is more related to Fedora than any other name before.
