Hi guys.
Is it possible to unify the release names? It becomes extremely
confusing for wiki navigators, wiki editors trying to document pages,
people looking to update their software, or people just plain looking
for information.
For example, can build 860 just be renamed to 10.1.3 ?

It's not technically at the gnome side... you have to install them in
the system :-)

Which Wiki pages are confusing? I've not seen any edits that show
confusion.
A release name is akin to a composite software product version. The
naming convention is described here:
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Future_releases#Release_naming_scheme
A build number is output of the build process.

substantially now.

I've played around with sarg for ad-hoc reports, which really came in handy
when I got claims that the internet doesn't work. Not only is it up, but

I had put that on hold for quite a while as it turned out Fedora ARM 11/12
