Fedora 9 - Sulphur
From the wacky names we call products file..
Red Hat's Fedora Linux community has settled on a name for their next distribution release. Instead of it being an executive decision of some sort, Fedora opened up the process in a voting contest with the winner being - Sulphur. Fedora 8 had the code name Werewolf and Fedora 7 was codenamed Moonshine. While Sulphur might seem like an odd name, the list that Fedora developers got to vote on had a few names that were definitely a whole lot weirder. Here's the final vote count: 62 | Sulphur 54 | Bathysphere 43 | Chupacabra 39 | Mayonnaise 32 | Dragicorn 29 | Woodwose 23 | Tourette 13 | Asperger 13 | Barmanou 10 | Chingachgook 6 | Kingsport Town 5 | Marfan 0 TrackBacksListed below are links to blogs that reference this entry: Fedora 9 - Sulphur.
