I posted this discussion on Fedora Discussion[1] last week, but I'd like to forward this discussion to devel-list for wider consideration. For the sake of keeping the conversation in one place, I do ask that you reply on the Discussion thread, rather than on Fedora Devel, please. """ The number “42” is a significant part of the story of the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, a classic series of satirical science fiction written by Douglas Adams. It has a long and enduring history in the geek lexicon, and it seems to me like the Fedora Project would be missing a tremendous opportunity to have a little fun with it. I’d like to propose that we consider bringing back the old Fedora codenames just this once and declare the release “Fedora 42 (Adams)”, ideally with a few subtle nods snuck in to the artwork for the release. When discussing this on the Fedora Council Matrix channel, Aleksandra Fedorova also made the excellent suggestion of producing some “Fedora Linux 42”-branded hand towels (which is another nod to the Hitchhiker’s series).
