No, he insists that the *operating* *system* is called GNU/Linux, as it
comprises of the Linux kernel and the GNU userspace libraries and toolset.
That is what constitutes an operating system, and GNU's role in the
creation of this software - nor in the maintenance of the Linux kernel, as
the Linux developers *use* GNU tools for their development - this should
not be discarded.
Nitpick, Linux uses and was developed on the GNU operating system, not
just a bunch of tools and libraries.
Nice retort though!
