<div dir="ltr">Hi<div><br></div><div>Regarding whether we should keep giving releases names, I think we should (big +1) for the following reasons:</div><div><br></div><div>* it (under our current scheme) pays homage to the hosts of our hackfests - lets be honest there isn't much reward in hosting it other than seeing your region represented in the release name</div>
<div>* its a 'fun' part of our project culture and I would not like to see that we gradually remove everything that is fun and interesting about our project</div><div>* users that I interact with often reference the release by its name, and I think it makes the individual releases more clearly distinguishable</div>
<div><br></div><div>I would suggest a Latvian cartographer or place of interest. Then next release we can have a splash of some drunk guys wondering around Brighton on a Saturday night :-P</div><div><br></div><div>Regards</div>
