How about Hurd, or Like Debian is trying an Open BSD kernel with Debians version of GNU.
GNU is more important because it can use any number of kernels.
M51DPS:
Why don't we just leave it as the community owns it? Or shares, it's not really owned. You can't steal it, because you already have it. It's yours, and everyone else's. Who owns an art form? It's true that people create certain pieces and are recognized for their work, but they're all just contributing to art as a whole. This is one of those questions where the easiest thing to do is come up with a new word or phrase . . . like Free Software . . .
Stryker:
it can be left at that, but technically it's owned... that's what our debate was about earlier. I was being technical and he was following some article he read on some website.
hm_murdock:
if by GNU, you mean all the UNIX crap... >yawn<
the Linux kernel is so better than that. why can't you guys ditch the tired old crap and move on?
