the link has relevance and interest to the list - it has been posted by many
people on most of the LUG lists in the country. What I took exception to is
the idea that by constantly renaming things, one can change their nature. Let
us face facts - the GNU project did not write the linux kernel, and no amount
of name changing is going to change that fact.
I am not a fan of the name but that's a weak argument IMO

There is a reason FSF calls the combination GNU/Linux rather than GNU
Linux. My argument is there is no GNU/Linux operating system either.
We have distributions which are essentially Linux based operating
systems that share source code and they have their own names.
