Hi all,

What he says is correct, isn't it?
I must agree with Binand
Yes. In the GNU GPL there is no point saying that all free software
must be called as GNU.
It would be absurd.
Linux distributions are made by taking free softwares like linux
kernel, and other GNU utilities and packaging them right. It is the
right of the company to call the product in any way they want.
