that is completely wrong, and inaccurate.


May be in technical sense. But I always respect freedom (for eg. I
won't run Yahoo's messenger, real player, winex, nvidia-drivers, etc
[1] ).  The term GNU/Linux is the pure sense of freedom!  If Hurd is
mature, I may switch completely to GNU!

[1] soon i'm going to switch to X.org
