I think we should all refer to his Stallman-ness, as "GNU/RMS".   As for
Cygwin, I think the
RedHat representative said it best:  It's their baby, so they get to name
it.

In the case of the Linux kernel, Linus owns it, and Linus named it.

Thanks to GNU/RMS, for GNU/EMACS, which I never GNUse if I don't have to.

VI Forever! <grin>
