[Qgis-user] Call for release name suggestions 2015

[ASAHI Kosuke]

Hi Anita and All

Can you use local hackfests or user meeting place name to QGIS?

I'm one of the organizer of hackfests in Japan.
We japanese comunity had three hackfests on 2015/8/1.
- tokyo http://connpass.com/event/16560/
- osaka http://peatix.com/event/106605#
- hokkaido(sapporo) http://qgis-hack-hokkaido-2015.peatix.com/

If you keep to use place name to QGIS, I propose one of those japanese 
city name.
I think you can give good impact to non-alphabetical countriesa and 
local comunities.
