AMDBoards have some first information about Opteron release dates and names here:
"To help you with the Opteron numbering, we have enclosed the official AMD literature explaining it.
Avril°°°: Opteron 141, 142, 241, 242 , 841 et 842
Mai°°°: Opteron 143, 243 et 843
Juin°°°: Opteron 144, 244 et 844"
First digit describes the scalability, 1xx means single CPU, 2xx meand for dual CPU use and 8xx for 8 CPU systems. The last two are just model numbers to let you know that i.e. 244 is faster and/ newer than 242 etc.
