[Wikipedia-l] [Wikitech-l] server names

[The Cunctator]

There's a second server joining the first, and Jason would like a naming
scheme for the servers. This is less a technical than an asthetic issue,
so I'm bringing it to the attention of the general list. I like the idea
of naming the servers after famous encyclopedists.

...don't forget Mortimer Adler. Besides, having a server named
mortimer is about as nerdy as it's possible to get.
