Wow, I'm a big fan of both Hyperion and Transmet and it had never occured to me that Severn could have been a reference to Vita Severn! And what if the double-meaning was intentional? That means that the codenames morphed from Hyperion to Transmet (without actually changing the codename) on the same release where the distro morphed from Red Hat to Fedora. Somebody tell me if this was intentional and who to award the geekpoints to if it is. =:)
