We ought to name them after weeds.
Because even with the small contribution I make, it is consuming my time
like weeds are consuming my yard.
This was a joke btw. I'm learning a hell of a lot doing this stuff.
I like the proposed naming convention.

OK, the Eiger part of EigerStein needs to go because the new images will
be
based on LRP 2.9.8. The Stein part of EigerStein needs to go because
even
though I may do lots of work on the new images, I don't want to convey
the
impression that I'm the only one working on them...in fact, I'd like to
play
as small a role as possible (got 'bots to build, you know).
So...How about major releases indicated by a particular family (genus?),
like Maple, and individual releases indicated by specific variety
(species?...I'm forgetting how the 5 latin catagories fit with common
names...).
This would give something like:
1st major release:
Silver Maple
Incremental releases:
Sugar Maple
Red Maple
Japanese Maple
etc...
2nd Major release:
White Oak
Incremental releases:
Burr Oak
Pin Oak
Live Oak
etc...
If this seems OK to everyone, we just need to start fighting about which
plant family to start with, or just let me (or my wife the landscape
architect/gardener) pick one.
Of course, each release would also have a numeric version/revision ID to
avoid ambiguity, but names are easier to remember & market.
