Well, taking yourself too serious is also quite dangerous.
I rather have a release called Titanic and be a clown, than
that we call it KO1 and find it back in every distribution
around and get bad press about the instability. 

We KNOW it will be buggy and we should make that very clear.

I find KO1 way too boring.
