Last week I gave you half of my Top Ten Names for Ubuntu releases. As a reminder, they were: ‘pissy porcupine’, ‘bitty bat’, ‘virtual viper’, ‘talky tortoise’, and (my favorite) ‘kinky kangaroo’. Now here are the rest. I do this, again, as a public service to Ubuntu, which can freely use these names as it sees fit (though a brand new laptop would be a most fitting ‘gift’ as a show of gratitude for my creative genius). Anyway… read em and weep! Oh, and you even get a bonus release.

The Ubuntu people enjoy giving their releases funny animal names. There have been “warty warthog”, “hoary hedgehog”, “breezy badger”, “dapper drake”, “edgy eft”, and the coming “feisty fawn”. Well, with nothing better to blog about this week, I’ve decided to provide my suggestions for names. So for this week, and next, I will present my Top Ten Ubuntu Release Names, five this week, and the rest next. Read em and weep!
