Plague! Will this be the codename for the next Ubuntu LTS?!? :lol:
It fits the (P) letter that is going to be used for that one!

If that's the case, I see you stuck with Maverick for a long time. :)

Are they going to miss the 'Outrageous Ocelot' out then?
I would advise stilts for the quagmires, and camels for the snowy hills

For (O) the name is already decided. It will be "Oneiric Ocelot 11.10". :P
The 12.04 will be LTS using the letter (P). Name is not decided yet... as far as I know.

Heh... I'm glad they didn't miss the ocelot, which is a beautiful cat.
What happens when they get to 'Zany Zebra'?

They go round the clock to "Awfully Anxious Alpaca", "Beautifully Bumptious Baboon", and so on.
