Linux Distros: What’s in a Name?

Yesterday, the Fedora Project released Fedora 21, and with it the tech media got on its proverbial horse and started reports and reviews of the latest release. While it’s a good release and we won’t be reviewing it here – I already gave it a shakedown during the alpha and found it to be fantastic and completely worth the wait – there’s one thing that’s missing from Fedora 21 that I find rather disheartening. Namely, Fedora 21 is missing a release name.
