Raj, have your views changed over the last 3 years? You were not,
IIRC, so FSF-ish.
I use the phrase "GNU/Linux" when I refer to Debian, but that is
because that is what the Authors named it. I call Raj "Raj", because
that is what he refers to himself as. There is no significance I
associate with a kingdom or a king when I call him Raj. A name is a
label. So Linux is Linux, or GNU/Linux, as a label. There is little
point, in my view, in discussing its inner significance.
Therefore, while Raj may have misled me with the name "DLUG", or
"ILUG-D" when I joined, at the end, I am no longer a Linux User on the
desktop, and not in Delhi, or even in India. Yet I hang around on the
mailing list, and consider myself a member. Why? Because I have
percieved common interests, that's why. The members of Lions Club are
not large cats, are they? As long as the group and I share common
interests, I will consider myself a member.
