For the old Red Hat names we had http://web.archive.org/web/20050223032029/http://smoogespace.com/documents/behind_the_names.html but the Fedora Core names are somewhat unclear. The german Wikipedia has an article about that: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fedora_und_Red_Hat_Versionsnamen But there the connections between the versions is not clear, and the connection between Heidelberg, Stentz and Bordeaux is Wine everytime, which would be against the rules (and boring!). I tried to go through the mail lists, but that was a bit too much to read... > Please start discussing, I'd like to have a list of good names to throw > at Legal later next week. Afaik Bordeaux is also, although not mentioned in the wikipedia, a color - therefore the name for 6 could be: - "Magenta", which is a colour *and* a charakter from the Rocky Horror Picture Show - Ostwald, which is a colouring system (see http://home.arcor.de/wilhelm-ostwald/ostweng/thomas.htm ) and also the name of the nobel price winner who invented this system. A name for FC7 could be another charakter from or around the Horror Show or another Nobel Price winner.
