You do that. Let us know how it works out.
When the FSF gets their _own_ little confusions about who's the
'principal
developer" of what sorted out, they'll be in a (slightly) more tenable
position to wander in and make demands of others.
Until that happens, this demand of yours seems entirely hypocritical,
given
the genesis of the (soi-disant) "GNU" kernel.
As far as I am aware, OpenMoko is not using the GNU/CMU Mach kernel..
OK, this is a really silly argument and I have tried to keep out of it
but .... does anyone even know how much "GNU" software is in OpenMoko?
I would assume they are using busybox like every other embedded
machine. While GPLed, I do not believe that it is GNU program.
Dropbear ssh (another common embedded app) is MIT-style licensed, etc.
How much GNU software must be on the system to qualify as GNU/Linux?
