Me too, for the most part. And, you'll note, very few people ever used
the version names before F17. I like the fact that F18 will be
Spherical Cow, because it's something of a reducto ad absurdum. The
reason I'm suggesting Bernhardt for F19 is as a tribute to the origin of
the Fedora hat. (BTW, if we can get it accepted, we could then suggest
Trilby for F20, because it's a variation on the Fedora that was
introduced in a play of that name. No, I'm not an expert on hats; I
just have too much time on my hands that gets spent wandering around
Wikipedia.)
