Re: OT: GNU or [G]NU (Pronunciation of...)

[Donald Bricker]

From the GNU web site   Welcome to the GNU Project web server, www.gnu.org. The GNU Project was launched in 1984 to develop a complete Unix-like operating system which is free software: the GNU system. (GNU is a recursive acronym for ``GNU's Not Unix''; it is pronounced "guh-NEW".) Variants of the GNU operating system, which use the kernel Linux, are now widely used; though these systems are often referred to as ``Linux'', they are more accurately called GNU/Linux systems. >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 06/24/02 09:38AM >>> Ok, how is this pronounced?  Is the G in GNU slient or not? mkb __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
