And you're not the least concerned that Eric Paul Allman, Theo de
Raadt, and Richard M. Stallman and many others find it offensive to be
labeled Linux developers?
Isn't it confusing that so many people spent at least 8 years without
knowing they were Linux developers, when they thought they were just
developing the GNU operating system and Linux didn't even exist?
