The names of previous Lemmy versions were all very boring and repetetive. We need something much more creative. Any ideas?

I like the TeX version scheme, it starts with version 3. After that it's:
3.1
3.14
3.141
3.1415 etc. Current stable release is 3.141592653. The message is that each version is a more accurate approximation of pi. It's not growing much bigger, but better.

This is fun but also incredibly awful
