Re: [Savannah-hackers] savannah.gnu.org: submission of LUV Email and Membership List Manager

[Loic Dachary]

        Hi,

        Your project was approved. Please note that Linux is the name
of the kernel. The name of the operating system as a whole is GNU/Linux.
Linux was added in the nineties to complete the GNU project started in
the eighties. But more important than credit, using the name GNU/Linux
lead people to the philisophy of the GNU project which is the philosophy
of Free Software. Would you consider renaming the LUV into GLUV ? It 
makes a pun  but not as nice as LUV, I admit. Promoting the Free Software
philosophy in this simple way would be greatly appreciated though.

        Thanks in advance,
