[all] Nominations for the "V" release name
Hey everyone,
There is ongoing discussion about changing our release naming process, but for the time being we are going to stick with what we have been doing. That means it's time to start thinking about the "V" release name!
The next developer event will take place in Vancouver, BC. The geographic location for this release will be things starting with "V" in the British Columbia province.
The nomination period is now open. Please add suitable names to https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Release_Naming/V_Proposals. We will accept nominations until December 6, 2019 23:59:59 UTC.
A recap of our current naming rules:
* Each release name must start with the letter of the ISO basic Latin alphabet following the initial letter of the previous release, starting with the initial release of "Austin". After "Z", the next name should start with "A" again.
* The name must be composed only of the 26 characters of the ISO basic Latin alphabet. Names which can be transliterated into this character set are also acceptable.
* The name must refer to the physical or human geography of the region encompassing the location of the OpenStack design summit for the corresponding release. The exact boundaries of the geographic region under consideration must be declared before the opening of nominations, as part of the initiation of the selection process.
* The name must be a single word with a maximum of 10 characters. Words that describe the feature should not be included, so "Foo City" or "Foo Peak" would both be eligible as "Foo".
Names which do not meet these criteria but otherwise sound really cool should be added to a separate section of the wiki page and the TC may make an exception for one or more of them to be considered in the Condorcet poll. The naming official is responsible for presenting the list of exceptional names for consideration to the TC before the poll opens.

Looking forward to having a name for our next release!

It's worth noting we haven't had an OpenStack Design Summit for years now (not since the PTG/Forum split), and the last few have been Open Infrastructure Summits. But the upcoming event in Vancouver isn't one of those either (event naming yet to be determined), so presumably the event name in this rule is being interpreted loosely.
(With love, your friendly neighborhood pedant.)

Oops! I had actually updated that on the wiki page, but then forgot to do so in the announcement. :)

Clearly the name must be V for Vendetta.

If only you could have made that joke two weeks ago, it would have been far more timely. ;)
Sorry, because this allusion confused some people, the plot line in "V for Vendetta" centers around Guy Fawkes Night which is observed annually on November 5.
I know I only get a +1, but I +1 this name a thousand times.

Just a quick reminder for everyone. We are down to the last week to submit names to be included in the V release cycle naming.
We already have a few great names on the list for the V release naming poll! If you have any other good names that start with V related to the British Columbia geographic region, please add it to the list.
The actual polling to select the official name for the V release will start one week from today.
