Hi -
a few of us were discussing what a code name for Sakai 3 could be. Dave 
suggested 'e' because e starts with 2.7 and goes on forever. Then we 
thought Goya, because (as I was taught in engin school), e is 3 squared 
divided by 10 plus twice the year Goya dies (2.718281828. Then we 
googled Goya and found

Francisco José de Goya y Lucientes (30 March 1746 - 16 April 1828) was a 
Spanish painter and printmaker regarded both as the last of the Old 
Masters and as the first of the moderns. Goya was a court painter to the 
Spanish Crown and a chronicler of history. The subversive and subjective 
element in his art, as well as his bold handling of paint, provided a 
model for the work of later generations of artists, notably Manet and 
Picasso.[1]

which seemed to fit pretty well. Just a suggestion...

John
