Call for the next release codename to be Ritchie
I guess I should have posted this to release team mailing list, but this way the topic will have more people involved. As you all (probably) know, Dennis Ritchie has passed away. In my opinion, we should somehow make tribute to him. I'm not sure the idea to name a release after him would be fitting, but that's the only thing I've came up with. -- Ivan

Just wanted a general core-dev response, not only those who make releases. Sure, if a naming flamefest can't be big enough on a small list, let's do it on a list with more subscribers. /irony Sorry this isn't how it works. We have specific lists for specific purposes, please respect that. The noise ratio on kde-core-devel is already high enough. And release-team@ has probably many more subscribers than you think. -- David Faure, fa...@kde.org, http://www.davidfaure.fr Sponsored by Nokia to work on KDE, incl.
