Naming is in sequence alphabetically and there is a release every 6 months. Maverick Meerkat was released recently. A B C D E F G H I J K L M... so that means... (13-6 releases) * (6 months/1 release) * (1 year/12 months) = 3.5 years


Except that there was no A, B, or C release in the current lineup, because it started with Warty Warthog, Hoary Hedgehog, Breezy Badger, and then they decided on the sequentially named releases starting with Dapper Drake (6.06).

Feisty Fawn was 7.04.


Good point. I put that in more to represent releases between F and M but I see why that was confusing.
