That's crazy, I had to implement a distributed system a few years ago, after some research I decided on using the Paxos algorithm. Never during my implementation or research I noticed that the whole Greek backstory thing was a joke. Now when I reread the wiki article, I realise I must have read over one crucial word in the summary: "The Paxos protocol was first published in 1989 and named after a fictional legislative consensus system used on the Paxos island in Greece"
