Well this is my first time being involved in
naming the release train. Unfortunately, someone asked my opinion, so in the
future be careful what you ask for. J I think the Planning Council does
a fine job picking release names.

I just responded to this in the bug entry.
As I stated there, I am not wed to an H
prefix, but it does have an
advantage of ordering the trains both backward and
forward.
Also, it would be different if there was a
great name that was
proposed, rather than spending time discussing
whether an H prefix is
necessary. I think it would be more
productive if people suggested
specific great names......
As I said in the bug, I will resend the mass
emails and solicit great
names and then throw it up for a doodle poll.
I will not restrict the
name choices to H*, and then we can let the doodle
poll guide the final
choice.
Ian, what is the calendar deadline for
picking the name?
