[eclipse.org-committers] Eclipse Release Train Name Contest

Committers,
As some of you may already know, the Eclipse Councils have decided to try a coordinate release of a number of major Eclipse projects in June 2006. We're calling this "the release train". Because each project has it's own semantically meaningful numbering scheme (the Platform will be at 3.2, WTP will be at 2.0, TPTP will be at 4.x, etc) we don't want to have a release number for the train, but we do want a release name. But what name?

We decided to hold a short contest to choose the name. The winning name will be enshrined for all time and the winner will be thanked in some as-yet-unspecified way. I've created bugzilla entry 108146 <https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=108146> for gathering name suggestions and votes on names.

May the best name win!
