<div dir="ltr">You forgot the third camp, who want their release names without punctuation so it doesn't break a decade of configuration scripting. Releases need punctuation and non-7-bit ASCII in their names like goldfish need martinis.<br>

</div>The choices are what the community came up with. At this point, that<br>
is what we have to chose from.<br>

<br>
</div>I'm not necessarily disagreeing, but there are essentially two camps<br>
right now. Those that don't care about release names one bit (like<br>
me), and those that do. If those that do care want better names,<br>
they'll need to work harder at creating meaningful suggestions.<br>
<br>
The Board has an open ticket on the naming process. We're working<br>
through it now, but "no release names" isn't an immediate option<br>
because the last time we proposed that the community vote showed names<br>
were still desired. Hopefully we'll resolve the ticket shortly and<br>
explain how naming needs to work in the future.<br>

<br>
</div>It will be dedicated in the release announcement. Perhaps someone<br>
might add something to the download page on the website as well.<br>
