(追記) href="https://www.stallman.org/">Richard Stallman</a></address> (追記ここまで)
<p>Most people have never heard of GNU. Even most of the people who
use the GNU system have never heard of GNU, (削除) thanks to (削除ここまで) (追記) since (追記ここまで) so many people and
companies (削除) who (削除ここまで) teach them to call it (削除) “Linux”. Nonetheless,
the name (削除ここまで) (追記) “Linux.” Indeed, (追記ここまで) GNU (削除) has certain associations, which people will discover once (削除ここまで)
(追記) users often say (追記ここまで) they (削除) hear the name. GNU (削除ここまで) (追記) are “running Linux,” which (追記ここまで) is (削除) associated (削除ここまで) (追記) like
saying you are “driving your carburetor” or
“driving your transmission.”</p>
<p>Nonetheless, those who know about GNU associate it (追記ここまで) with the ideals
of freedom of the free software movement. That association is no
accident; the motive for developing GNU was specifically to make it
possible to use a computer and have freedom.</p>
(削除) <p>The (削除ここまで)
(追記) <p>A person seeing the name “GNU” for the first time in
“GNU/Linux” won't immediately know what it represents, but has
come one step closer to finding out. The (追記ここまで) association between the name
GNU and our goals of freedom and social solidarity exists in the minds
of hundreds of thousands of GNU/Linux users that do know about GNU.
It exists in (追記) <a href="/home.html">gnu.org</a> and in (追記ここまで)
Wikipedia. (削除) And it (削除ここまで) (追記) It (追記ここまで) exists around the web; if these users search for GNU,
they will find (削除) <a
href="http://www.gnu.org">www.gnu.org</a>, which talks about free
software and freedom.</p>
<p>A person seeing the name “GNU” for (削除ここまで) the (削除) first time in
“GNU/Linux” won't immediately associate it with anything.
However, when people know that the system is basically GNU, that brings
them a step closer to learning about our ideals. For instance, they
might become curious and look for more information about GNU.</p> (削除ここまで) (追記) ideas GNU stands for.</p> (追記ここまで)
<p>If they don't (削除) look for it, (削除ここまで) (追記) search, (追記ここまで) they may encounter (削除) it (削除ここまで) (追記) them (追記ここまで) anyway. The
(削除) “open source” (削除ここまで)
(追記) <a href="/philosophy/open-source-misses-the-point.html">“open
source”</a> (追記ここまで) rhetoric tends to lead people's attention away from
issues of users' freedom, but not totally; there is still discussion
of GNU and free software, and people have some chance of coming across
it. When that happens, (削除) the reader is (削除ここまで) (追記) they are (追記ここまで) more likely to pay attention to
information about GNU (such as that it's the work of a campaign for
freedom and community) if (削除) he knows he is a user (削除ここまで) (追記) they know they are users (追記ここまで) of the GNU
system.</p>
<p>Over time, calling the system “GNU/Linux” spreads
awareness of the ideals of freedom for which we developed the GNU
system. It is also useful as a reminder for people in our community
who know about these ideals, in a world where much of discussion of
free software takes a totally practical (and thus amoral) approach.
When we ask you to call the system (削除) “GNU/Linux”, (削除ここまで) (追記) “GNU/Linux,” (追記ここまで) we (削除) do so because
awareness of GNU slowly but surely brings with it awareness (削除ここまで) (追記) are
asking you to help in making the public aware (追記ここまで) of the free software (削除) ideals of freedom (削除ここまで)
(追記) ideals.</p>
