It's a hot dog. It has always been a hot dog. The name is not an
innuendo, it is not a double entendre. If anyone thinks it is, that's
their problem, not ours. The whole beefy miracle thing is and _has
always been_ about a food product.

That aside: this list is for QA work. There's no possible basis for QA
as a group to object to this or indeed _any_ given release name. If
individual QA members believe there's something so terrible about the
release name that it's worth trying to provoke a screaming emergency,
then by all means, go ahead and do so - but I can't see any basis for
doing so as an action _of the QA group_. We're doing QA, we're not
debating implications of the release name.
