I just realized there's a perfect successor name for Beefy Miracle: "Me GNUsta" It's related to the previous name (both are meaty) and it's true because we love GNU, even though it's all kinds of weird
Conveniently, someone has already done the artwork: http://imgur.com/knjUd

I think Fedora 18 should take a radical approach to code names, one that no one would ever expect. How about:
Fedora 18

I agree.... If anyone on this list ever stated "I'm running Fedora Sulfur and have a problem.....", I fairly sure most folks will go "Huh?".
That being said, it must be a fun exercise for some folks blowing off steam from not being able to resolve bugzillas. :-) :-)
After all of changes in Gnome, systemd, user id and of course Fedora leadership, maybe appropriate name could be "Mea GNUlpa" or "Mea Maxima GNUlpa"

I think when in future distros will be 1) some Gmome2 fork, 2) instead of systemd upstart/sysvinit again (or as option in conjunction with), and 3) all will not be drived by NetworkManager, then Fedora will be usable promptly after release again. UID/GID increase is IMO OK, and grub2 implementation will be sufficiently good soon.

What's wrong about network manager? Personally, I don't use it. To delete it is the first thing to do after a fresh install.

What is wrong with systemd? This project needs some more attention from developers but why do you think that upstart is better? sysvinit is becoming obsolete, now in 2012! Maybe Fedora developers should make some tweaks in systemd but I really like this project.

I use it on laptops and there reasonably works. But on several machines with multiple interfaces when I omit uninstall it, I ends with unaccessible machine where was cripled interface settings or routing tables - although these was configured as static and routing with proper route-IFACE and rule-IFACE files. And this occurred even when NM was not installed, but install after update, when some updated package depend on it.

Systemd should be default init as early as in Fedora 14 - and soon will be released Fedora 17 and here are still lot of problems and Bugzilla is full of them. Yes, I hope too that evolve to something useful and mainly stable - because I need work on Linux PC, not endlessly debug it. And regards sysvinit - why should be obsolete? Its history is long - but because did his work perfectly and was absolutely stable - and this is important now as well. Personally, systemd may have some benefit on desktops, but at servers, small and embedded devices is perhaps overkill. At my i686 system i see systemd use 12MB/8.2MB virtual/resident memory - only several services (clamd, apache, bind, slapd) has bigger memory consumption. And sysvinit on Fedora 5 i686 use only 2MB/0.6MB virtual/resident memory - and system is for years rock stable and does all what is needed. And is completely insensitive for me, if this system will boot by several seconds faster or not - system/vga/RAID bioses on it initializes much longer than Linux start. And another things, important from administrative aspect: syntax for old sysvinit scripts is far simpler, flexible and ergomomical in comparison with systemctl syntax.
But back to $SUBJ - i personally hope that "Mea_culpes" in Fedora we have with F15/16 just away and in future there will be fewer such unbaked and buggy projects. (Yeah, I remember yet as I tried sssd in Fedora14 - after several months with locks, memory/descriptor/whatsever leaks I finally wiped it;). Franta

I know it's not going to fly, but I'd like to see the F18 code name be a celebration of life. Why, will be left as an exercise for the reader.

I presume you mean that as a joke. My suggestion was serious; I really would like to see F 18's name be a celebration of life and I have a good reason for it.
