the first time I up voted something
now that needs a little appreciation :D
I watched his recent interview. Does the FSF fund his work? He said that
the donations are not enough to cover a salary ... that's not really fair.
It's easy to say that it's because the proprietaries have locked potential
users into formats and protocols, and therefore people cannot
Whoever wrote the FAQ did a great job:
I notice this website refers to Trisquel as a distribution of GNU/Linux
and not Linux. Why?
There is a long-standing naming controversy. Most people who use the system
today don't know that what they're actually using is the GNU system combined

I believe you got ME a bit confuse, Please follow me on this, and If I'm
wrong feel free to comment.
crunchBang is a Debian GNU/Linux based distribution offering a great blend of
speed, style and substance. Using the nimble Openbox window manager, it is
highly customisable
You wouldn't want to just say GNU like Trisquel GNU, because that doesn't
give the Linux kernel the credit it deserves.
GNU/Linux is the best we can do, for now.
The best option is to get the Hurd running well so we can damn this naming
problem forever. :p
Well this might be good news for the Crunchbang communityIt appears Blag
21K (http://blagblagblag.org/) will use Openbox as their default WM. Various
DE's will be available during install (XFCE, LXDE, Mate, Gnome), however, if
the DE is left unchecked then it will install an optimized

or Red Hat are more sustainable than 1 man teams. Makes you wonder how much
longer Ruben can keep this project going and bleed money working on it.
Its sad to see Crunchbang go, but I never had a need to use it
Well, I'm happy to say that Ruben has greatly improved Trisquel's development
process and made it easier to contribute. Now all we need is more
volunteers...
