Re: [eclipse.org-planning-council] Notes from "First Wednesday" meeting:

["Brian Payton" <bpayton@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Regarding the comment during the meeting
that legally acceptable release names have to either be very common or
very obscure, I found a list of obscure words beginning with "n"
here:
http://phrontistery.info/n.html

From that list, for what it's worth,
here are some words that I thought had potential, either because of the
meaning or the sound of the word itself:

naos  --  temple; inner cell
of a temple
navette  --  pointed oval
shape; jewel cut in this shape
nembutsu  -- Buddhist invocation
chanted to achieve enlightenment
neper  --  unit for expressing
the ratio of two currents or voltages
nexal  --  of or pertaining
to a nexus
niello  --  ornamenting metal
by placing black compound in engravings
nimonic  --  of alloys used
in high temperature work
noosphere   --  sum of human
intellectual activities
notandum    --  something
to be especially noted or observed
notarikon  -- making words from
letters taken from throughout a sentence
numen  --  presiding deity
nuncius  --  messenger
nyala  --  large South American
antelope
nychthemeron  -- a full night and
day; 24 hours  (I'm just amused at the thought of people trying to
work out how to pronounce this one :-)

Regards,
Brian

Initial agenda: 
https://wiki.eclipse.org/Planning_Council/March_04_2015

Discussing the name of Mars + 1 (plus future "change of type of naming")
would be a good reason to attend!
