I see from Distrowatch that the latest Ubuntu development is codenamed "Jaunty Jackalope." In that case, I suggest codenaming the next one "Zesty Zonkey." Eat that, Ubuntu.
Why mock the release names? Surely Ubuntu are doing that nicely by themselves? And because this is a non-technical chat, it's now residing in Grumpy General.
Honestly? I think because I wanted an excuse to say "zonkey." It's not really because I've laughed at Ubuntu's name for years--I suggested that if I ever create a distro, I'll call it "Chimichanga Linux," and I just now thought of shortening the former to "Ubu Linux"; if it were another distro receiving silly animal names, I'd mock it just the same.
