Announcement: 10.10 name official

I have seen several threads and posts that still reflect pondering the Ubuntu 10.10 name. Just so you know, the name is official: Maverick Meerkat. Try to brainstorm names for 11.04 onward, please.

To help everyone come up with cute name for Ubuntu 11.04, here is a list of animals whose name begins with the letter "N":

How is this different to http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...-names-807429/ which has been running for a little while?

Xavier: That thread was where the posts are that I am posting about: They at the time of this thread's posting were still brainstorming names for 10.10, which is already official.

It really isn't. I did not see that thread however, since it was in the "General" section.
IMO, one of the mods should merge the 2 threads. And the merged thread should be in this Ubuntu section of the forums.

But both threads are "link <adjective> and <animal> to make an Ubuntu name". They are identical, sticking release number XX.XX in front of it is irrelevant.
