Please do not give instructions to the general population, that the
general population cannot follow.  I am thus posting to the users@
list, where this original request was sent.


My only request is to avoid names that sound like themes from other
distros.  Any scheme we choose needs to be different enough to stand
on its own.

For example, any "$adjective $noun" name is going to make people think
of Ubuntu, and any "$distro $name" is going to sound like Debian.  The
previous "Fedora $release $is-a-noun" scheme was "our way" and IMHO we
should return to that.

Removing the code name completely seems to me like a step in the
suit-and-tie direction and I would hate to see our project go that
path.
