Sorry to tell, but this comes too late now. It would require a bit of 
discussion and we simply don't have the time anymore to have them. The 
hostname as well as the user and groupnames can be edited post install 
if necessary. Also I thought we had the discussion of codenames. Right 
now it is called "R1/alpha1", which I find descriptive and easy to 
understand.
