[Ambassadors] The Future of release names

[Mark Terranova]

Awesome the cat BOTH typed and sent my response (meow). The relevant site
is bikeshed.org . I will have a detailed  and even possibly well thought
out response later. A friend just asked me- so some folks still have a
beef...... With *beef*? (A person that does NOT know release numbers, btw.
They do know the *names* for recent releases tho).

If we go themes, I suggest BBQ, or maybe hotdogs ;)

I suggest folks go get some popcorn, pull up a chair, and settle in for a
lengthy and humorous debate.

How much time are we going to bikeshed on names?

ALL Hail the Beefy Miracle,

-Mark
