I think we need to go for fruit names... we already have -CURRENT, we only need to rename -RELEASE, -STABLE and something for the fixes... We cannot use -APPLE, -APRICOT, -CHERRY nor -ORANGE or some company would get very sour... But there is -BANANA, -PEAR, -GRAPE, -NECTARINE, -TOMATO, -MELON, -STRAWBERRY, -RASPBERRY... Or maybe more exotically, -DUREN, -LYCHEE, -RUMBUTANG, -STARFRUIT... -- ANTONY T CURTIS Tel: +44 (1635) 36222 Abacus Polar Holdings Ltd Fax: +44 (1635) 38670 > A diplomat is someone who can tell you to go to hell in such a way that > you will look forward to the trip.
