Unfortunately, I am in disagreement to your choice of names. Not only
is that confusing to many users, but how exact would you pronounce
that? If its actually pronouncing the letter and then desktop that
sounds dumb. There's no need to complicate things. Keep the entire
distribution Fedora and perhaps just keep counting up like we've been
doing or maybe what Gentoo does with the years, that's a good idea imo
also. So we could have either Fedora 7, Fedora Linux 7, or something
like Fedora 2007 and then .1 .2 etc.
We have a chance here : Fedora Core 7 will be out in 2007. What about
sticking to years now ? Fedora 8 will come out in 2008 ?
And name the releases according to it : Fedora Linux 7.1 for the spring
release and Fedora 7.2 for the autumn release.
What we can see in the fedora development is that it seems to have a
major release every year or so, followed by a more polished one.
FC2 was a polish release of FC1
FC4 ... FC3
FC6 ... FC5
Then we can expect FC7.1 being a major release, and FC7.2 being a polish
release.
