Hey, I'll be the maintainer (i.e the guy to blame if something goes wrong) for K-turtle, which among other things, involves helping find a name for this release of ROS. So far, the proposals that got the most votes are: - Kinetic Kame - Knight Kame - Kame Hame Turtle - Kappa - Kahlua Kame - Karumbe my votes go for: - anything that includes Kappa (because I found this cute drawing [1]) - Kahlua Kame because of how it sounds I propose Kiwi Kappa and Chelonid Kame, though it doesn't start with K. I was going to propose Kanye, but look at what happened to the Coinye project [2] Thanks. 1 - http://homepage3.nifty.com/saitamasite/tour/h_izu/topkappa.jpg 2 - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coinye On Sun, May 10, 2015 at 9:51 PM, Bill Smart via ros-users wrote: > No, spelling things with a K makes them klassy in the US.
