  > Tange, O. (2023, July 22). GNU Parallel 20230722 ('Приго́жин').

Looks like the latest release is named after Prigozhin. Yeah, probably that one, although I couldn't find anything in the mailing list to confirm it.

edit: all releases are named after current political events:

Looking at the release history it may be that the releases are named after some front page daily news headline or something.

Even so, knowingly naming a release after a war criminal is very off-putting.

It shall not be. It is a notability indication, not endorsement, just take a look at other release names from the time of the war. Or compare to Time's "Person of the year".

I get the system. It's just a bad system.

The author is having musk-ish type of fun and that's their freedom. My freedom is to feel disgust by seeing mass murderers, even if they are treated equal to not controversial topics.
