I thuroghly agree at that we should keep the name Linux-libre, but this discussion does beg one to ask the question, what about the name GNU/Linux? Should we call a wholy free GNU system with the Linux-libre kernel, GNU/Linux-libre? I have been thinking about this for a while, and I have yet to develop a fully formed opinion on the issue. I would like to hear the input of the developers and other users on this matter. -- Steven DuBois http://sdubois92.ath.cx ___________________________________________________________ This message as been sent using Mutt (http://www.mutt.org/)
