Actually RMS doesn't like the name Linux, and he wants the operating
system to be called "GNU/Linux" or "GNU+Linux" and not Linux.  I
attended an open source conference in 2002 when he attended, and he
spoke about it.  Personally I think it's a lost battle, and Linux is a
good name for the operating system.  Especially when there are
operating systems such as Red Hat Linux, Debian and Ubuntu, adding the
name "GNU/Linux" to them would be too long and confusing.

P.S. I searched "linux" in Google and found out that the title on
www.debian.org is "Debian GNU/Linux".  RMS' battle for GNU/Linux is
not completely in vain.
