There goes Vihan's argument from the Andheri BoF. Granted that he did not mean that GNU owned the kernel, but I suppose he has no right to say this:
"But Linus himself uses GCC to build the kernel.."
Mrugesh, the context was in terms of ``credit is given where credit is due and reciprocating". If you are quoting anyone, please mention the`complete' context in which the statement was made.

Hmmm. Was that the context? I really can't remember. All I remember is me talking about Linus being against GPL3.
Anyway, the intention was not personal abuse. For that matter, no abuse of any kind was intended.
