Re: [Savannah-hackers] submission of Neutron Linux - savannah.nongnu.org

[Loic Dachary]

        Hi,

        We are sorry but Savannah does not host distributions (agregation of
various programs). It only hosts development and documentation projects.

        Also note that the name of the operating system is GNU/Linux. Linux is
the name of the kernel. Using the name GNU/Linux helps remind people about the
ideals of freedom that started the Free Software movement back in 1984.

        Cheers,
