RMS and nblug

[Mitch Patenaude]

This is just RMS being RMS... he's always been bitter that GNU and the 
FSF haven't gotten their fair share of the credit for Linux's success  
(most of what you think of as linux is actually the GNU tool set, plus 
other open source projects like Apache and XFree86)... so he always says 
it should be called GNU/Linux, rather than just Linux.  He's got 
something of a point (How many of the thousands of programmers who 
contributed to a standard Linux distribution can you name?  Linus, Alan 
Cox, ESR, and ?????) , but as usual he's being an insufferable nuisance 
about it.
