><i> Throughout the pages at www.Mageia.org there are references to Linux as
</I>><i> if it is an OS or a distribution, which in my opinion not only robs the
</I>><i> people of the GNU ṕroject of the credit for the great operating system
</I>><i> that they have developed and maintain, but also is a great way for us to
</I>><i> wave our flag of ignorance.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> How come we don't call Windows NTLDR.EXE in a like manner that we are
</I>><i> calling GNU Linux.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> It is my opinion that we are being EXTREMELY Politically incorrect and
</I>><i> that we should correct ourselves now before it becomes an impossible
</I>><i> project. ( Logos, posters, decals, Web Pages, promo material )
</I>><i>
</I>><i> The Operating system being included in the Mageia distro is called GNU
</I>><i> which is often, but not always used with the Linux Kernel as well as
</I>><i> many other excellent FOSS programs.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> We should be touting the Mageia Distro of GNU, Linux and assorted FOSS
</I>><i> programs. NOT Mageia Linux. Let's do it right.
</I>><i>

</I>I agree to support the GNU project and not to mention only Linux all the time. I had the opportunity to be in a coference of R.Stallman and except that he spent a big time of his conférence to explain this ( :D ) i think that he had very valable arguments as his coonamed :) has here.
At least a mention/référence in the website to remember that Mageia is a GNU/Linux distribution.
As Mageia needs support GNU needs too and we own to it a lot.
