Why is pronouncing the "slash" or "plus" important? I've been saying it wrong all these years! -Adam On Fri, Sep 17, 2010 at 05:47:17PM +1000, Alex Fraser wrote:

I'm sure many of you enjoyed the Stallman speech the other night. He re-inforced some policies I think we should stick to. Please talk about "GNU/Linux" or "GNU+Linux (pronounce the slash or plus) not "Linux" and talk about "free software" not "open source".
It's such a mouthful, though. Can't we just call it "GNU"? I know RMS said he didn't want to, because he didn't want to inflict the same pain on Linus. But we're not RMS :)
