Standing by the ideology of Free Software is very nice. Asking
everyone to use the term 'GNU/Linux' works against it. From my
experience I notice that people tend to move away from using Free
Software because of this "perstering". I learnt it the hard way.
Secondly non-free software isn't as evil as the illiteracy / poverty
that exists in this country. so if ASHA wants to use non-free
software, i think its fine, but well, I'm speaking for myself :)
