Yeah, don't worry, this list's members are posting the thread back
over to fsfe-uk when it contains real flamebait... :-(
The useful discussion is not so much "GNU-Linux or Linux?" but more
"what should groups be called and how can we make that happen?"
Clearly, the FAQ on www.gnu.org isn't how to make that happen in the UK,
because most people can find it and it doesn't change many minds.
(I've no idea whether the above is on-topic for this list, because this
list doesn't seem to have a charter, an admin team and so on.)
