&gt;<i> Hi,
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> I am in charge of finding the replacement name for &quot;cooker&quot;, eg the
</I>&gt;<i> development version of Mageia.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> Like the for the distribution, the name have to be short, must not be an
</I>&gt;<i> insult any of 6000 know languages in the universe and must not refer to
</I>&gt;<i> another distribution to avoid mistake.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i>   
</I>Hi,

Perhaps something very simple can fit :

As many magic potions use roots as base ingredients mixed with many
ph34rsome others we could just use &quot;root&quot; or &quot;root&quot; :)

The magic part with that would be obvious :)

This would also be an allusion to linux superadmin account name

But also &quot;root&quot; would be the base on which several stable branches
rely... a nourishing base like roots bring sap to branches in trees...
so also a symbol of life and vigour...

(Tree symbology is also very important in white magic)

This is short... i hope this is not and insult in the 6000 known
languages in the universe and while this is used in every Unix, BSD and
Linuxes i think nobody use it as a name yet...

How about that ?

Ma&#226;t


</PRE>
