So then where is it in the papers? I didn't read _every single last
article in
existence_, as that would be too much of a project. I just looked at
whatever
seemed relevant (the documents directly relating to the naming of the
GNU/Linux
System) in my own judgment, and I looked at every FAQ question listed
and
none say "Why are names the appropriate place to give credit?". So
what do I do?
Is it in some odd place that I wouldn't expect to find it? What is the
answer?!
