Thank you, for your quick answer,i have processed the modifications and additions you requested concerning the licensing issue.
On the reference to Linux in the place of GNU/Linux, i have not discuss the matter with the original author (Alexandre Passant) but i guess that he will agree with me on the following. One of our goal in this document will be to explain the differences between Linux and GNU/Linux. However this document is intended to beginners, and i think that another title would be too obscure to them. The better way to explain complex things is to make then as clear as possible. The complexity won't come without explainations first. One of the first chapter is on the GNU Project, consequently from there and throughout the rest of paper we will refer only to GNU/Linux when speaking of the OS.

In addition, if you haven't already, please copy the plain text version the license (usually this file is named "COPYING"). The GPL is available from <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.txt>. Additional instructions are available from <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.html>, that are usually valid for libre software licenses. The GPL FAQ explains why these procedures must be followed. To learn why a copy of the GPL must be included with every copy of the code, for example, go to <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#WhyMustIInclude> "Linux" is just a kernel of a more complex system that we like to refer to as GNU/Linux, to emphasize the ideals of the Free Software movement. Would you mind changing references to Linux as an OS to GNU/Linux?
