[ubuntu-in] Correction in mentioning linux (Please mention it as gnu/linux)
Hello All It is observed in the ML that every body is using the term LINUX instead of GNU/LINUX. Its should be corrected because GNU represents the GNU utils running over the LINUX Kernel. So we should attribute our credit to both the parts which makes such a beautiful OS. Hope this will be followed.

[ubuntu-in] Fwd: Correction in mentioning linux (Please mention it as gnu/linux)
Hi All I think i should make a statement here. What makes an operating system. The kernel as well as its utilities. Correct me if i am wrong. while saying linux we are talking of only the kernel. Then where is the mention of the utilities which make up the os. It is like mentioning the car engine which represents only a part of the car.

Hope this will be followed. This has always been a huge debate. I think I should start referring it as GNU/X/Compiz/Gnome/Linux instead of Linux. Well said Manish in fact my one liner was not meant as a neighborly suggestion it was to point out at the absurdity of the whole thing. Well said both Ram and Manish. Thanks for the detailed email !
