As Lirix is approaching its first delta release, now is a good time to reveal the name for the first Delta release of Lirix.
Yes, the name for the first Delta release of Lirix will be « Mellifera », named after the Western honey bee, Apis mellifera.
Like how Ubuntu names its releases after alliterative adjectival animals, and how MaXX Interactive Desktop names its releases after SGI machines, Lirix releases will be named after various species of bee.
A release simply means an official release of an ISO file, I guess. Really though, naming releases marks an era instead of an actual release that you would get with static release distributions such as Debian.
This era is named after the most famous bee (although really that's joint place with bumblebees in general somehow ¯\_(ツ)_/¯), fitting for the first release/era of Lirix.
That's it for this article. Remember to save the bees.
