I used to not care too much about the push for GNU/Linux but upon
further reflection it does tend to denigrate the contributions of other
significant developers. A linux webserver depends just as much on
Apache as it does on libc as it does on the linux kernel.
Maybe someone should start an "OSS/Linux" meme.
