   Dear KC LUGS:

   Here's an email from RMS. The Red Hat copyright deal is true. But he's
   happy. Interesting, huh?  Maurice

   "That's right, the GPL distribution of Red Hat
   Linux can no longer be called Red Hat Linux, it now MUST have a new
   name.

   I've been unhappy with the old name for years.
   This system is basically the GNU system,
   but they call it Linux.

   They should call it GNU/Linux.
   See [1]http://www.gnu.org/gnu/linux-and-gnu.html.  "
