Isn't that maybe a bit too techy?
That's why we don't want a discussion but a poll. If the majority likes techy, we should take techy.
Greetings, Stephan
I agree that a vote is probably the best solution. Still, if this gets decided outside of a formal vote - I'd like to see something along the lines of Mandriva or Ubuntu. That is to say, a numbering system that conveys meaningful information! One of the things that endears me to openSUSE is that it is typically run in a purposeful, pragmatic fashion. Releases tend to feature only calculated 'risk' - FF 4 beta? Yes. Systemd? Technical Preview. I hope that our version numbering is also changed to something purposeful and pragmatic. Of the various proposals, a date-based system best fulfills this goal. Similarly, if we do adopt a date-based system - please avoid seasons for the same reason. "Spring 2011" is ~April 2011 in Germany - but ~September 2011 in South Africa.
