Open Source guru wants Linux renamed

14
“The Free Software Foundation (FSF), headed up by open source evangelist Richard Stallman, has called for Linus Torvald’s operating system to be renamed ‘GNU/Linux’, rather than just plain old ‘Linux’.

In a move which has met with predictably mixed reactions from the Linux and open source communities, the FSF has released a document outlining why the system should undergo the name change.” (Ed: Do they do this stuff on purpose? Talk about pushing buttons – calling RMS an open source evangelist is like calling The O’Reilly Factor a platform for animal rights activists.)
