Name Fedora 8
With about another 2 months to go before Fedora 8 is released, the hunt is on for a name. Moonshine was the name imparted to Fedora 7, the current code name for Fedora 8 is Rawhide.
Shuttleworth has a cool naming convention for releases of Ubuntu: we’ve had Feisty Fawn, Dapper Drake and now Gutsy Gibbon. He also names his releases early in the development cycle. The Fedora team has a more appealing distribution, in my opinion, but the naming of their software is somewhat less so. The current contenders, for which votes are being sought until 5 October are: Werewolf and Kwass. Lycanthopy or alcohol? You decide…
