I respecfully suggest "Whistler" :-)
Doesn't Microsoft already have that as a code-name?
Then make it "Porteau Cove" !
I don't think we want to release a browser of epic fail.
But we already picked 知床 as the codename.
@Havvy: Yes, Windows XP was codenamed "Whistler", and the OS codename "Longhorn" is taken from the name of one of the bars there. I think the Wikipedia page on Whistler has more information.
Whistler is a great codename. I associate the whistler bikepark, b.c.
Co-chairman of the W3C CSS Working Group, entrepreneur, software engineer, geek, father of two, polyglot, unashamed French, duck lover. Nah.
