Richard Stallman如是說: If we tried to measure the GNU Project's contribution in this way, what would we conclude? One CD-ROM vendor found that in their 「Linux distribution」, GNU software was the largest single contingent, around 28% of the total source code, and this included some of the essential major components without which there could be no system. Linux itself was about 3%. So if you were going to pick a name for the system based on who wrote the programs in the system, the most appropriate single choice would be 「GNU」.
Linus如是說: 00:30:37,650 --> 00:30:41,650 [ Some people advocate it be described as GNU/Linux. [ 有人提出應該把它叫做GNU/Linux
593 00:30:42,050 --> 00:30:45,150 I mean what's your thought on that? I would say, justify or... ] 你怎麼看?我是說,這樣稱呼合適嗎 ]
594 00:30:45,150 --> 00:30:50,450 Well, I think it's justified but it is justified if you actually make GNU distribution of Linux. 嗯,這沒問題,如果你製作的是Linux的GNU發行版 那當然沒問題
595 00:30:50,850 --> 00:30:57,950 The same way that I think that Red Hat Linux is fine or SuSE Linux, or Debian Linux. 就象Red Hat Linux,SuSE Linux或Debian Linux
596 00:30:58,850 --> 00:31:01,850 Uh, because if you actually make your own distribution of Linux 因為,你要製作Linux發行版的話
597 00:31:01,850 --> 00:31:03,650 You get to name the thing. 總得給它取個名字吧。
598 00:31:03,750 --> 00:31:07,750 But calling Linux in general "GNU Linux" I think, is just ridiculous. 但我認為要把這些系統都稱為 「GNU Linux」就有點荒唐
