Anyone else tired of these inscrutable code names?Anyone else tired of these inscrutable code names?Posted Aug 19, 2005 1:52 UTC (Fri) by rm6990 (guest, #30921)In reply to: Anyone else tired of these inscrutable code names? by stevenj Parent article: Ubuntu Breezy Badger "Colony 3" now available
Ummm, what are you talking about? Colony 3 is a alpha version name. Much like Deer Park for the Alpha versions of Firefox. Breezy, when released, will use the standard Ubuntu 5.10 Breezy title.
Or do you propose that instead they name the alpha version the same as the final release so that every novice linux user downloads an alpha release, not realizing they have done so? That is the exact reason Firefox Alphas are named Deer Park.

Posted Aug 19, 2005 19:10 UTC (Fri) by stevenj (guest, #421) [Link] No, alpha version should be named 5.10 alpha 1, etcetera.What happens instead is that people tend to refer to the releases by the code names (hmm, does Debian "sid" come after or before "woody"??).
