Ubuntu like it's parent uses both a name and a point release related only diffrence is date in which the release is dropped vs Number Rev. Now Linux Lite is a child re-spin of a flavor ([X]ubuntu) of a child (Ubuntu) distro of Debian unstable. So by using a Name and a point release it stays true to the past. but has the ability to move forward and diverge. Maybe at some point it will move enough away so that it may no longer follow the Ubuntu LTS and have it's own LTS or at least a base then a upgrade path.[size=78%] [/size]

I also would like to see the number scheme continued. Makes it a lot easier to know what's newer, older, and relative time span between them.
A feature I would love to see is webapp integration, e.g. Google Keeps/Plus/etc, custom url.

I think the numbering system is overused, especially in the world of operating systems. The roman numerals idea that misko_2083 mentioned, is certainly a nice alternative to the conventional system, while still being simple to understand.
On a side note: the codename "Citrine" for the next version of Linux Lite, looks and sounds similarly to the car company "Citroën". Maybe that just shows my love of cars a bit too much. :P

Great. Now we can call them dynasties instead of series. :)
From Citrine the first to Citrine the fifth will be Citrine dynasty. ;)
Citrine reminds me of lemon. Citrus, Citric acid.
I think Copal is considered a gemstone although it's organic. It's usually full of insects but it would be cool if there was one Lite feather inside.
That just gave me an idea for the wallpapers. We could have series of wallpapers like: feather in a balloon, feather in a lightbulb, feather in a bottle...
