Me too. I can never keep straight codenames of second-dot releases. Both OSX and Ubuntu's release names confuse the heck out of me. "Mac OSX" in itself, on the other hand, was brilliant. With one letter they managed to establish: * this is significantly different from OS 9 * this is cutting-edge (subtly invoking the "eXtreme" thing, and yet they never had to use the word "extreme" which is frankly getting tackier by the day.) I wouldn't mind something with similar impact for zope 3 as a whole, not for point releases. Too bad we don't have the same serendipitous cool-looking roman numeral... "Zope III" doesn't quite do the job ;-) -- Paul Winkler http://www.slinkp.com _______________________________________________ Zope3-dev mailing list [email protected] Unsub: http://mail.zope.org/mailman/options/zope3-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
