I don't suppose anyone caught Stallman's response in the 3/24 issue of Business Week, to the Linux article published on 3/3? "Your story on the "Linux" operating system, which I have been developing since 1984, repeated a widespread error by calling the system Linux, because the name we gave it is "GNU." In 1992, when GNU was nearly complete, Linus Torvalds released a free program that fit the last major gap. The combination, a system more GNU than Linux, is the system you mean. The practice of calling it Linux is unfair to us, but more important, it gives the public an incorrect picture of why the system exists." Just consider this is what the business community read as fact. What is certainly somewhat 'amusing' to us, in the same way Iraq's minister of information's statements were 'amusing', aren't exactly veiled in mystery. So everyone running the GNU toolchain on BSD, I suppose you are all running GNU/BSD :-?
