"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." I'm afraid that cannot satisfies us. Our stance is stated at <https://gna.org/about/#art3> and we stick to it quite rigidly. It is good that you refer only to GNU/Linux when speaking of the OS inside the document, but title do matters, we cannot disregard such aspect. We believe important to call the system GNU/Linux, not Linux, and to promote usage of such term, one need to be very consistent, in order to keep his message understandable.
