Rename PLUG! (was Re: RMS (again))

[Kirt Karl]

Hi Everyone,

Wasn't my intention to start this fight. As Alan mentioned earlier, the name
thing has been gone over and over and over... I just wanted to know if
anyone 1. wanted him here 2. wanted to help bring him here. Doesn't look to
promising though. The line about the name was just to let everyone know up
front that any help couldn't / wouldn't be in the name of PLUG.

Cheers, Kirt

Oh, bother!

Let's not go round and round with this again.  Check the archives if you
want to read the arguments about what "this OS that we love and use" should
be called.  Then, if you have something new to say about it, by all means,
say it.

IMHO, RMS needs to get over himself.  The "market" has spoken and the name
is Linux.

PLUG relabled to 'PGLUG'.  We could be doing the right thing [tm].

fwiw,
