Name for future Fedora distribition?

I don't like the FC X.Y format but i think that releasing
one version
by year instead of two is a good idea.

I ask people who don't use linux what was the brand they
would choose
and they all have chosen "Fedora" due to its
simplicity.

I don't think it is at all. The purpose of the Fedora
Project is to go
forward. Everybody should agree about this.

a longer life cycle would be welcomed by me but only if we can provide a "current" tree with latest kde or gnome or whatever to be available at people wanting to try this stuff.

Also i see no point in 7.1 or 7.2 ... maybe it would be more applealing Fedora 8 and later Fedora 8.1 8 rev.A
ciao
