There's nothing wrong with being thankful (or why I say GNU/Linux)
,----[ Quote ]
| For example, simplicity for newcomers: What
| about when you have a distro that doesn't have
| Linux inside of it? Say, Debian's hurd or
| kFreeBSD or NetBSD ports? Those are distros,
| but Linux is not to be found inside cause it
| (the kernel) has been replaced for another
| kernel. What are we gonna call them? Debian
| Non-Linux? Go figure how you will explain that
| to newcomers ("sure... it's Debian Linux...
| but it has no linux... yet it is linux".
| Priceless).
|
| Some people have said that it's out of
| Stallman's big ego that he wants everybody to
| call it GNU. Well, I think Stallman hits the
| nail (at least on the funny part) when he says
| that "sure... and that's why I ask people to
| call it Stallmanix". So I think it's not out
| of ego... but maybe if he had named the OS
| Stallmanix in the first place, we wouldn't be
| having this argument as it (too) is more
| catchy than GNU. :-)
