@unnumbered The GNU Project and GNU/Linux
|

|
|
|

|
|
The GNU Project was launched in 1984 to develop a complete Unix-like
|
||
|
|
operating system which is free software: the GNU system. (GNU is a
|
||
|
|
recursive acronym for ``GNU's Not Unix''; it is pronounced
|
||
|
|
``guh-NEW''@.) Variants of the GNU operating system, which use the
|
||
|
|
kernel Linux, are now widely used; though these systems are often
|
||
|
|
referred to as ``Linux'', they are more accurately called GNU/Linux
|
||
|
|
systems.
