I support the idea, it should be done at least something like when
Verne was released and Dennis Ritchie, not only the Fedora Community

Seth was well known and attended many Fedora events worldwide.  He was
very much respected by those who knew his work, and loved by those who
knew him personally.  I'm glad to see so many people unified in the
feeling he'll be dearly missed.

I liked the suggestions of Biker Yum or Yummy Cycles as names for F20.
Perhaps could use one of these or similar and have the dedication to
him also.

Initially at the point of reading the suggestion I agreed that naming
a release after him was an awesome plan, although nearing my reading's
conclusion I came upon the thought that, since Seth has given so much
to our software and community, I personally believe that the devotion
of one meager release that has the staying power of somewhere between
6 and 18 months before it is committed to EOL seems a little
temporary; from what we have all been saying about him, I think he
might deserve a more permanent fixture within the Red Hat / Fedora /
Linux community, some recognition along the lines of Torvalds or
Stallman.
Maybe name some sort of "package" after him?.....something with some more staying power?...
