This links to the legal proceedings regarding the Linux
trademark that had been held by one "Della Croce." The

the trademark to Linux.

country.

This is an article in the vein of Linux should be
hard to install and use so that only "true hackers" are able to use
it, otherwise it will become worthless like Windoze...
There are valid points, but I basically disagree with the article...

Proposed Final Solution To GNU/Linux problem
| | I have a solution to the problem of "Linux" vs. "GNU/Linux"
that occasionally crops up here. It is inspired by this observation
from Jonas Oberg, in an essay on slashdot. Some people argue that XFree86 should be given as much credit
as the GNU system. Those people do not understand that by calling my
system a GNU/Linux system, I give credit not only to the GNU project
but also to XFree86. Why? Because the XFree86 has been adopted by the
GNU project for use in the GNU system, as has Lynx been which I use
almost daily. So by calling it a GNU/Linux system I give credit to
every program which are part of--or has been adopted by--the GNU project.
If Linus and Alan Cox and the other people who deserve to be
mentioned in the same sentence as Linus and Alan but whose names I
can't recall at the moment would simply declare that the Linux project
has adopted the GNU project for use with the Linux kernel, then
calling the system Linux will automatically give the GNU system
credit, just like calling something GNU automatically credits XFree86. | |
