It's politics again, as the whole OSS thing. There is the concept that
releasing source code with the program is good, and then there is
everything else, like stuff about Linux being renamed to GNU/Linux, etc.
They're just being pedantic, and whoever wins gets the throne though
there is no real issue to fight over (and no real throne)
