Agree.

Numbering is OK.

Is it too often we have Fedora releases (I am not sure -maybe), but
definetely we should keep the current numbering which is clear and easy.

Instead I am suggesting that we should get rid of the confusing naming
while version already has its number. Why then use additional name (like
Leonidas, Constantine) anymore?

It's just confusing for the people who does not know those names and
they hardly know that Fedora is a LINUX!!

I think we should rather add name Linux before/after the word Fedora in
official naming so it would be easier to explain what it is after all.
