Most Telepathy projects assign names to releases. The names are basically meaningless, and are typically some sort of in-joke based on recent events in #telepathy and/or Collabora.

(Gabble 0.8 release names are mostly recipes from The Jean-Paul Sartre Cookbook.)

Some sample release names from past releases, to give an idea:

• The “even children are made of atoms” release.
• The "Use STAPLE REMOVER on TREMENDOUS DANGEROUS-LOOKING YAK" release.
• The "where did you get your bear?" release.
• The "an enzyme that breaks down tigers" release. Sometimes the person doing the release can't think of a good name. Please donate surplus (unused) release names to this page, and delete them if/when you use them :-)

• "foo bar baz $foo"'$badger'"$waffles" does the right thing
