Ubuntu 14.04 LTS to be named Trusty Tahr

Google search queries for "tahr" increased by 1000%

They&#x27;re going to bring Mir&#x2F;XMir in for an LTS? That seems to be risky to me. These large Canonical-backed projects seem to have a whole lot of rough spots on launch day. upstart and Unity both were very buggy initially.<p>Or is this going to be one of those cases where they come out aiming for LTS, but end up pushing it back to the next release?

Now all I can think of is a guy named Jimbob wanting to get a set of four tahrs for his truck.

&quot;At least we know now who belongs to the Open Source Tea Party&quot;<p>Ouch! Shuttleworth doesn&#x27;t shy away from controversy. It&#x27;s not a bad thing to be polarizing in a quickly-moving industry, but that comment seemed pretty harsh.

They should have gone with Tapir. That way we could have made &quot;Calvin&quot;-type peeing stickers that spanned the entire back window of our pickup trucks.<p>Tapirs - The Super Soakers of the animal kingdom.

Nice adjective for the LTS.

Targ would&#x27;ve been better, IMO. ;)

Dear Mark Shuttleworth,<p>It&#x27;s not too late to switch the name to Titillating Tit.

It&#x27;s gonna take a while, but I really woder what comes after Z.

I was rather hoping for Tumultuous Tarsier.

So what happens after when they reach Z?

Although LTS releases are more reliable and better supported, I find the other releases to be more exciting. Hence I will probably wait for &#x27;Ubuntu 14.10 Unitarian Unicorn&#x27; or whatever it is called.

Stupid name like all Android&#x2F;Ubuntu releases.

I think &quot;Tim Tebow&quot; would have been an awesome name.
