Curious what they'd name the release after ZZ (17.10?)

This is interesting. We've had Jaunty Jackalope and Utopic Unicorn, and now we've got Wily Werewolf. Some people would claim that none of these is an actual animal (sometimes calling them instead "cryptids"), but what is more intriguing here is that the werewolf is actually a human (most of the time). As for what happens after Z, well, they could go to A, as they've never done it before.

I'm waiting for Unity 9 to be honest. Right now, Debian seems to be working just fine.. I'm still on the fence with systemd though.. A lot of linux security experts scream about it being a security risk..

Although it will, at some point they will have to reuse letters (JJ), what acjective and animal name would they come up with? . . .

[x-scratch]

debian uses toy story names, fedora uses numbers & ubuntu uses silly animal names

[Gotenks98]

Kind of a newb question but is there a way to preview this before release? Is there a command line way to do this?
