The name GNU/Hurd is clear, convenient, and a proper name for the system--sez me, sez RMS, sez just about everyone else. Sometimes we say GNU, sometimes GNU/Hurd. When we are explicitly contrasting a Linux-based system from a Hurd-based system, it is most clear to use the two terms GNU/Linux and GNU/Hurd. We don't have control over the whole document, but we probably get to put what we want in our section, and in our section, I think using the more clearly contrasting names is the right thing.
