who the hell ever suggested to change the name of the "kernel" as a
software to GNU/Linux that you suggest this to retaliate?
Suggested naming convention was invented by pioneers of Free Software
to show the role of GNU and free software philosophy in creation of a
free community-based "Operating System". they want to show OS (not
kernel) as a representer of Free Software.
