| [eclipse.org-committers] Eclipse Release Train Name Contest | 
Committers,
As some of you may already know, the Eclipse Councils have decided to 
try a coordinate release of a number of major Eclipse projects in June 
2006. We're calling this "the release train". Because each project has 
it's own semantically meaningful numbering scheme (the Platform will be 
at 3.2, WTP will be at 2.0, TPTP will be at 4.x, etc) we don't want to 
have a release number for the train, but we do want a release name. But 
what name?
We decided to hold a short contest to choose the name. The winning name 
will be enshrined for all time and the winner will be thanked in some 
as-yet-unspecified way.  I've created bugzilla entry 108146 
<https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=108146> for gathering 
name suggestions and votes on names.
May the best name win!
