    Linux should be referred to as GNU/Linux

    Stallman never suggested this, of course. He draws a distinction between Linux, which is a kernel, and GNU, which is a userspace, and suggested that GNU/Linux should refer to an operating system that is the combination of Linux and GNU… which is what this article seems to do.

      Which is actually how ‘Linux’, in the common useage, is used.
