And then each of the pre-release versions could be named
after a different one of his paintings?
I like it.

Hi -
a few of us were discussing what a code name for Sakai 3 could be. Dave suggested
'e' because e starts with 2.7 and goes on forever. Then we thought Goya,
because (as I was taught in engin school), e is 3 squared divided by 10 plus
twice the year Goya dies (2.718281828. Then we googled Goya and found
Francisco José de Goya y Lucientes (30 March 1746 – 16 April
1828) was a Spanish painter and printmaker regarded both as the last of the Old
Masters and as the first of the moderns. Goya was a court painter to the
Spanish Crown and a chronicler of history. The subversive and subjective
element in his art, as well as his bold handling of paint, provided a model for
the work of later generations of artists, notably Manet and Picasso.[1]
which seemed to fit pretty
well. Just a suggestion...
