To: "openstack@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" <openstack@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>, "openstack-dev@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" <openstack-dev@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>, "eho@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" <eho@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>, "savanna-all@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" <savanna-all@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Hi everybody,

we have changed our project codename to Savanna (from EHO). Here is our new wiki page - https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Savanna and new site - http://savanna.mirantis.com. 

We decided to do that because of the following reasons:
* we don't want to violate trademarks usage of Hadoop and OpenStack
* we think that Savanna sounds much better than EHO for the english speaking audience
* if Savanna will become an integrated OpenStack project, OpenStack Savanna is much better than OpenStack Elastic Hadoop on OpenStack
* Savanna is the place where elephants leave :)
