No, you're not the only one. We discussed this at the time.
We took a vote. Your side lost.
Andrew.
I kind of like the idea of naming; it says that we're creative. Sure there
are some conservative types who think that names are not cool; these people
probably don't think much of Tux either. Then there are the creative types,
who number just as many, or in our case , more, who think that naming the
distributions is a better plan than not; and we probably work better as a
group because of it.
Let's not think of it in terms of winning and losing, but of collaboration
and support for the betterment of the task at hand - making us better as a
team.
