Description
All LTS releases will be assigned a "codename" drawn from the names of elements on the Periodic Table of Elements. For each upcoming LTS release, the Release working group will select a handful of candidate names and submit those for a collaborator vote.
I looked up the List of chemical elements and noticed there are no elements starting with "J" or "Q" or "W".
I realize that we won't hit "J" for 7 more LTS releases but I'm curious...how will the "codename" be decided in those 3 cases?
UPDATE: looks like I'm not the first to notice this problem.
Maybe other languages could solve it.
UPDATE 2023: "J" is officially "Jod". Let's move on to discussing "Q".
