/me likes too. However, me as an ordinary non native speaker did not have a meaning of the word "leap" at hand immediately.
Cause you're so young. ;)
Search for this phrase: "That's one small step for a man, a giant leap for mankind."
I was a kid at the time, but that is not what I heard on TV. I heard «Es un pequeño paso para un hombre, pero un gran salto para la humanidad» (1)
:-P
And the normal translation for "salto" is "jump", not leap. So the relation to the Apolo 11 mission for the word "leap" may be missing to many Spanish. :-P

My proposal was "openSUSE Fir" to enhance the Evergreen spirit as it is a Evergreen tree variation. A nice way to avoid the conflicting names with the well known openSUSE Evergreen Project but keeping the long lasting release comcept. Now I know "openSUSE Leap" is a very nice candidate for this openSUSE42.
