There is a Free Pascal IDE similar to classic Delphi named Lazarus.

I suggest what 1st
Mageia version be called "Xavante"
Xavante is a Brazil indigene tribe. When Brazilian distro
Conectiva was sold to Mandrake to form Mandriva, at the
late 2005, some Conectiva users tried to create a fork
called Xavante - just like is happening now-, but the
distro was not ahead.
Would be a surprising and amazing tribute if this codename
was adopted and would recognize the Brazilians as part of
Mandriva operatting system and, now, from Mageia operating
system.
I guess the first release of Mageia will need to have a more
symbolic name, like Fedora has, a name that is symbolic even for
people that are not inside the community. Sadly Xavante will not
mean anything for people from outside, that's why a much more
powerful name would be better to have a great meaning (and why not
link it to the artwork? Well, that'll be to determine in the
future).
Yet, using Xavante as a little name for one of the pre-releases of
the first stable release for Mageia could be really nice.

My two cents:
We could use "Lazarus", giving a response to all people ou' there was speaking the "death" of Mandriva and it's community.
