The troubles with release namesThe troubles with release namesPosted Aug 9, 2012 1:15 UTC (Thu) by JoeBuck (subscriber, #2330)Parent article: The troubles with release names I suggest that the name of Fedora 19 be "Fedora 19", and that Red Hat give half of the money this proposal saves them in legal bills to charity and the other half to their stockholders. If a code name is required, "Nineteen" will do.

Silly names can be marketing on their own. I assure you that quite a few people are more aware of Fedora after Beefy.

That's largely a function of Fedora quality, not the name ;-)

In this case it is the community wanting something whether Red Hat wants it or not. So the names continue.
