The hole debate Linux vs GNU/Linux created because Stallman has started to complaining, mostly in his conferences, that Linux cannot has all the glory because he worked hard more than 20 years to have what we have today with Linux too ofcourse. He has right in the part that for these reasons is good and right for GNU to be mentioned and for the users at least to know the name GNU and its existance.

After that we cannot be exaggerated, it does nt worth a debate. 

I dont think that someones who says only "Linux" is against GNU.
