Hey,

I feel like we're picking the word first, then trying to make it meet the criteria. How about the reverse?
*clap* *clap* *clap* the first sensible thing I've read in this thread!
So what should be the criteria for a name? The name should:
* distinguish '42' from other distros by conveying its unique features * hold appeal for the product's target audience: End Users, Admins, Small Businesses. * imply a salient attribute, quality or benefit of the openSUSE 'brand' * have a symbolic association with the 'image' that people have of openSUSE * help motivate people to download and install 42
Other criteria you can think of?
Henne
* usable for name pattern in the future (what do we want to use for the next releases) * significant, what people are downloading * we should be able to explain, why this name
Sarah
Everybody wants to know, what he is downloading. We have got Tumbleweed and 42 then. What is the difference for the customer and what should he use? Do the explain it on the download page? We want to get new users, too. A new user doesn't want to look in the wiki, what which name is. He wants to get the software fast for testing it. I like the idea with Rock and Roll. Another idea is, what Henne has written above: Brand Tumbleweed is the rolling release and Brand is showing every "branded" step in the development.
