'Continuum' gets my vote too. It will be a continuation of MX excellence as already established, though on reflection I would change my vote for something that reflects dependability and sturdiness too.
OT: I know that the base will not change for the new release, but I do think it should be set apart from a monthly 'snapshot' in some way. I think it would need an identity of its own, perhaps a different default theme and backgrounds? Just a thought. Something that reflects the new 'name'. We had that great skyline background shipped with Horizon after all.

You seem a little upset, Dave. Sup?

Sorry, Dave, I can't do that. You look like you've blown a fuse yourself. Sup?

Oops. Sorry. I loved that movie. It was quite an odyssey actually. I got a little carried away there, though. Anyway, I can't think of any suggestions for MX-18 names just yet. :snoopy1:

Galaxy, Universe, Vega, Luna, Deimos, Orion...
zodiac signs - Aries, Taurus, Gemini...

Or Ubuntu like code names, let's think... "Celestial Mongoose"😁

Another idea would be Ancient lost cities: Troy, Sparta, Ayutthaya, Persepolis, Carthage, Akkad...
