What about 'Hönggerberg' (the place where the developer meeting took place) ?

Hi All

If you are a daily blocker list [1] watcher you will have noticed that Juergen Fischer (aka our resident coding machine) has been whittling the list down - 31 issues left as I write this.

Juergen has been funded for two weeks - one week each from the Swiss QGIS Users Group and QGIS.org's fund). If you have been contemplating sponsoring QGIS, there is never a better time to do it as we use the money to fund activities such as these which are a huge step in helping us to produce good quality releases.

Based on his progress I expect we should be ready to release before FOSS4G2013 (yay!). We need to decide on two things:

* A name for the release
* A map for the splash screen

These should be in a similar vein to the splash and name for QGIS 1.8 'Lisboa'. Since the next Hackfest after Lisbon was Zurich I am proposing that we name this release after an interesting place in Zurich. To avoid trademark etc issues I would prefer we use a little know place - also one that non german speakers have a vague hope of being able to pronounce. As such could I ask our hosts from Zurich to proffer a suitable name and a nice old map that we can use for the splash screen?

Many thanks

Tim
