Our aim is to host free software projects, and we want
to encourage the public to think of them as free software
projects.  A project name that says "open" is likely to
encourage people to think of the project as "open source"
instead of "free software".

We would be glad if you accept to use "free" instead of
"open" in your project name.

"Linux" is just a kernel of a more complex system
that we like to refer to as GNU/Linux, to emphasize
the ideals of the Free Software movement.


Would you mind changing occurences of Linux as OS
to GNU/Linux?

You can get more informations at
