Ubuntu releases on specified dates and has names associated with those dates. Basically arguing that a date dilutes the value of the release seems pretty weak to me. Given that we are "engineers" who are people I think we would be able to look at a changelog of some sort and understand what a particular time stamp brings with it. They are only numbers after all.
