I think is a good idea to have code names for the releases, but I'm not so sure about "cocktail names".
The only other naming convention we have is skin names: http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/DevelopmentPractices#HUsingbirdnamesforSkins Also not so sure that should be decided just by the release manager (there is quite a small list of people that do releases) Thanks, Caty > Le 11 août 2010 à 17:17, Jerome Velociter <[email protected]> a écrit : > > > Hello friends, > > > > I would like to propose introducing the use of code names for each > release cycle of XWiki (2.x, 3.x, etc.), using a agreed-on scheme (a la > Ubuntu [1]).
