I think it would be fun to have nickname conventions for major updates. I suggest something at least something star wars related. But animals in star wars would be fun. or maybe go more vague like animals and aliens and characters if there isnt a widely known name…
Love this idea!
Apple obviously have done place names for a long time - Mojave, Sierra, Catalina etc. There are plenty of cool place names in Star Wars.
ProffieOS 8 - Coruscant
ProffieOS 9 - Bespin
ProffieOS 10 - Ahch-To
Or maybe go for the lesser known ones:
ProffieOS 11 - Cantonica
ProffieOS 12 - Zeltros
We could even rustle up round icons depicting each location. They would obviously have to be copyright-free, but I don’t mind having a crack at some designs if we decide to go down this road.
Whlie fun to think about, I’m not actually going to give code names to ProffieOS releases, and I wish that Debian, Ubuntu and Apple wouldn’t either. I never know what these code names actually mean, and I find myself having to look up which one is the latest all the time.
While kind of fun, it’s not helpful, so I’m not going to do it.
Agreed! I find the release code names for Debian and others incredibly confusing, I really wish they would use numbers. They’re really fun and creative, but really difficult to work with.
