A Composer Name...

Cars, not birds
I'd say the naming thing itself is pretty unofficial, just something the watchers and developers did to keep track of it all. I doubt there was anything as serious as offical coding standards written to describe the codenaming of Mozilla.org projects.
But....
If there was a standard for naming modern Mozilla.org projects it would be to name them after models of cars. Firebird, Thunderbird, Camino, they're all models of cars. I think it's fitting in a way, after all Mozilla.org is engineering a product.
Just for the record...

Is this *bird naming pattern a Mozilla guideline or a project by project thing?
If it is the latter, I'd go with some composer name: Mozart.
great suggestion, i love it
Actually in another thread some people recommended Stravinsky, another composer. And for a cool reason too, check it out:

Cars with bird names
I did a quick search on newsgroups and found this:
<a href="http://groups.google.com/groups?hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&threadm=19990114053635.25390.00000455%40ng39.aol.com&rnum=1&prev=/groups%3Fhl%3Den%26lr%3D%26ie%3DISO-8859-1%26q%3D%2522cars%2Bwith%2Bbird%2Bnames%2522%26sa%3DN%26tab%3Dwg">cars with bird names</a>
A quick list of cars with bird names:
American Bantam
Buick Skylark
Eagle Talon
Ford Falcon (and T-bird, I guess)
Hupmobile Skylark
<b>Pontiac Firebird
Pontiac Phoenix
Pontiac Sunbird</b>
SS (Swallow Sidecars, predecessor of Jaguar)
Studebaker Hawk & Lark
Buick Skyhawk (Chevy Monza clone)
Nissan Bluebird (home-market Nissan)
Packard Hawk (the Stude-bodied Packard)
Willys Aero-Eagle hardtop (1952-54)
I've gotta say I think the name Talon from the Eagle Talon would be pretty fitting for the "means to an end" possition that the composer is in.
