i just wonder from where do they get such cool names = Gutsy Gibbon.

^^ Gusty Gibbon.. Since Ubuntu mainly take words from africa so here you go

Gusty means Blowing swirling ... While Gibbon is a species of Monkey

SO a Jumping monkey is what GG is

I mean they jump with gr8 power to give best OS experience

like/with an energy of monkey

Lol... and wat about this

4.10 Warty Warthog
5.04 Hoary Hedgehog
5.10 Breezy Badger
6.06 Dapper Drake
6.10 Edgy Eft
7.04 Fiesty Fawn

and wat do these name mean ?

@Shashwat Pant: By seeing at the features you posted I cant see any details regarding performance update. Can you please post some details regarding Core changes/Performance updates?

I have some issue when resuming from Hibernate in 7.04, Was it a known issue also file search is not that good as I had expected. I hope there will be major improvement with Gusty.

You might find this wiki page a bit resourceful in your quest for the code name's meanings:
*wiki.ubuntu.com/DevelopmentCodeNames

Gutsy Gibbon, as I saw it while using Tribe 1 (Which broke after a while ..) has a unified Desktop Appearance panel a.k.a Windows style. Yeah, this means that you can change your themes, pointers and what no via the Desktop-Context-Menu > Appearance option.

And that's just one of what changes are gonna take place, install it now to find out the rest

I'm still waiting to see if they pick something like "Horny Human" for their next release...hahaha.

sure they wont

^^^ I know...but it'd still be cool...heh.

Nah, they'll probably name it something like "Hungry Hedgehog" or whatever.

@rocket357 - Heh, you can participate in the name choosing over the IRC channels. The link I gave above has a huge list of possible combinations and words for the same from which they'll choose one out.

Moreover H's already taken by Hoary Hedgehog .. Next would be I? Iceweasel

Offtopic: Qwerty.. what hapnd man ? havent seen you for sometime here

Exams .. Today's the last. Got to hurry now
