I'm a bit on the -1 side of things as well. Having two ways to refer to a release has always annoyed me with projects like Debian/Ubuntu. Granted they tend to use them a lot more interchangeably than Noah is suggesting, though I do wonder if it'd still lead to confusion. I think for the particular

I have a bit of a feeling, that the proposal is a bit misunderstood. Noah has written: "We'd mention the name in the release announcement and in the changelog. But otherwise, we'd continue to talk about releases using the release number." So we use the name for a CouchDB release solely for market

Hi folks, SUMMARY I'm currently working on the rewards for the CouchDB AdvocateHub. (See bottom of this email for a refresher.) One of the rewards I'd like to offer is the ability to "name" a CouchDB release. We'd mention the name in the release announcement and in the changelog. But otherwise,
