But even there there was a bit of a break when Stallman insisted (does he still?) that Linux be referred to as GNU/Linux as its kernel would be worthless without the GNU userland. People in classic Slashdot were fans of Free/Open source, but in conflicts between Linus and others, Linus came first.

And Stallman is wrong in his GNU/Linux naming crusade, because it ignores a whole lot of non-GNU components in any modern Linux distro, even the fully-Free ones like gNewSense. X, for example, has never been a GNU project.
