I'd say, we need to respect all those who contributed to the gnu "project" and that can be done by using its name in conjunction with linux. > > > Tell me, What if there is no GNU, No RMS ? No Linux right? The replies given to this state that he was not an active developer or something. Its not just the technical input that matters. Who would have thought of something as radical as the GPL and then who would have spurred the development of so many free software packages? Had the GPL been not there when Linus wrote the kernel, can you imagine what would have happened? I'd say it would have remained as just another student project. -- Regards Praveen Chandrahas Free Software is a matter of freedom, not cost.
