"Mandriva style variation" or "deterministic old school": YY.counter (2 digit year, counter starts at 0)
The next release could be either 11.5 to continue with current counter or just like magazines do it and go for YY+1 (ie 12.0) already near the end of the year. Advantage: 1:1 compatible with current rpm macros
Please make one concrete proposal - or two - following my example above.
So, let me add the following to my list: "Old school /Mandriva variation": YY.counter (starts at zero) Next release is: 11.5 (otherwise this won't work) Following releases: 12.0, 13.0, 13.1, 14.0, 15.1

I said this last time, why change. We are openSUSE we aren't the others.
My vote is on 12.0.
Names are good for project names, but no will take us serious will use Sci-Fi Names. Might as well call it project Mickey Mouse.
Yes, I agree, lets stick to numbers. Setup the survey to decide on the policy of the numbering scheme. If we have names (cute or not) we'll have endless threads on the mailing list for every release about what the next name should be.
