why 'tettnang'?
does anybody know why fedora core 2 was called 'tettnang'? all i can associate with this name is a very small town in southern germany (i lived there a long time ago) and a kind of hops which is cultivated in this area. why tettnang???

good question.
as all red-hat releases got names related 2 the release before but not related 2 the even-before one i guess they try the same here. so u got yarrow and tettnang what have both in common. when i (located in germany) google for tettnang i reallly only got everything ( it seems even the public toilets of tettnang have there own homepage) bout the city in germany. But it seems Yarrow is somehow related 2 the city of tettnang (yarrow got imported 2 the usa from europe (maybe from tettnang?) )
what will be the name 4 fedora core 3?

Yarrow is a spice and Tettnang is a type of hop - both are used (or were used) in beer brewing so perhaps that's the link.

These codenames are combined with hops...
"Tettnang is an aroma-type cultivar which originated in the Tettnang hop growing area of Germany as a land-race hop. It is grown in the U.S.A. in Oregon and Washington State. "
EDIT: kzip was faster

i imagine they didn't find these codenames while drinking water or coke - anyway, it doesn't matter so long as they don't call it budweiser or becks

Here's what I've gathered so far:
Red Hat and Fedora code names are always somehow connected, even though the connection can be very hard to find.
Fedora Core 1 was called yarrow. Yarrow is a plant, which I think sometimes is used in brewing of various drinks, among them beer.
Tettnang is a plant too, a hop, used in brewing of beer among other things. So that's your connection.
(Tettnang is also an area in Germany, I would'nt be suprised if Core 3s codename somehow will be connected to this area)
