Ubuntu 19.04 will be called Disco Dingo. Since there is not much known about Ubuntu 19.04 features yet, let’s talk about this cheesy codename.
These letters are in the alphabetical order. So after Ubuntu 18.04 Bionic Beaver, you had Ubuntu 18.10 Cosmic Cuttlefish.
The first word is usually an adjective and the second word is a (usually endangered) species.
The pattern in the second word was broken with the
release of Ubuntu 14.10 Utopic Unicorn. Instead of an endangered species, it was a fictional animal. Yes, Unicrons are fictional. Stop believing in that rainbow farting animal.
The first word used to be an adjective however ‘disco’ is a noun and a verb but not an adjective. I wonder how come Ubuntu team ran out of ideas for an adjective starting with letter D. I guess they just wanted to party.
Dingo is a type of dog native to Australia. It’s not an endangered species but at least it’s a real animal. If Ubuntu were going for a fancy name with fictional animals, Disco Dragon would have been a lot more fun in its own way. And yes, Dragons are not real as well.
Australia is home to so many of these animals that they are generally considered pests. A famous “dingo fence” has been erected to protect grazing lands for the continent's herds of sheep. It is likely that more dingoes live in Australia today than when Europeans first arrived.
Though dingoes are numerous, their pure genetic strain is gradually being compromised. They can and do interbreed with domestic dogs to produce hybrid animals. Studies suggest that more than a third of southeastern Australia's dingoes are hybrids.
