Thanks for the suggestion. For those not deeply involved in Linux, the term GNU/Linux is synonymic only to Debian. This is probably due to the fact that only Debian uses the GNU/Linux terminology. I have engaged the FSF on this issue, explaining that a new construction is needed that can reference GNU without the /Linux in the same string. By the way, I really like your diagram: http://www.atai.org/softwarewar.gif This is really cool!
