Mac OS X 10.6 - Any names for it?

The thread title explains it. My guess is Cougar. I was a bit from Wikipedia about the versions and it stated that Lynx and Cougar were registered by Apple back in 2004, but Lynx has already been used as a name for an open source text web browser for the Mac OS X Public Archive. All of the other names (Tiger, Leopard, Panther) have already been used and Apple does not have any other registered names left besides Cougar.

Any other names?

Lynx the text-based browser was not created by Apple.

Your guess is as good as mine regarding 10.6.

Sorry it was the University of Kansas, then revived by open source people. It's under the MAC OS X Public Archive for UNIX / Open Source items:

Apple - Downloads - UNIX & Open Source - Lynx text web browser

Sooner or later they're going to run out of names.

Of course Huy, but if they're going to register them as trademarks, then they would have to be public, wouldn't they?

Codenames

And sometimes companies just register them for the sake of doing it, without actually putting it to use later on. They do that with patents too.
