Anise
Initial Release - June 21, 2020
A snapshot of the conference site code demonstrated to the 2020 Conference Planning Committee. It represents a significant departure from the originating code base of Project Zeppelin. Although an alpha release, this version of the code is being presented outwardly to potential conference sponsors.
Release names will follow an alphabetical nomenclature, similar to the World Meteorological Organization's naming conventions for tropical cyclones. Rather than using gendered names like the WMO, each ALAO release will be named after a spice or herb. The first alpha release being 'Anise', representing the letter 'A'. If there are more releases in a given year than there are letters in the Latin alphabet, release names should cycle back to the beginning of the Latin alphabet, doubling the letter for the release name (i.e. AA), and follow the rhythmic naming conventions of Ubuntu releases (e.g. 'Athenian Anise').
