this argument might had some point a while ago but today ? why should it be named gnu/linux and not kde/linux? I agree that GNU people did usefull stuff but so did kde/qt people and so did X11 people by giving credit to one group we inslult another. yea gnu did gcc and few other untilities and so did other groups so who would you give credit to first?
