Subject: (GNU/)Linux [Re: Dutch to sue Micro$oft...]
Someone made a reply that looked like an English teacher correcting
grammer. This hasn't really been a flame war though. More like an
examination of the evolution of [GNU] Linux and a rehash of the
arguments why people do / do not use the GNU prefix. (Though I may have
put my tongue too far into my cheek with the GNU/BSD/Artistic/... Linux
message.) A flame war usually devolves into people calling each other
names. What we've had here is a refreshingly civil discussion of the
topic.
