Quoth JG: > Hello RMS, > I agree with your postion on calling a Linux system GNU/Linux. ... I think we should all refer to his Stallman-ness, as "GNU/RMS". As for Cygwin, I think the RedHat representative said it best: It's their baby, so they get to name it. In the case of the Linux kernel, Linus owns it, and Linus named it. Thanks to GNU/RMS, for GNU/EMACS, which I never GNUse if I don't have to.
