Welcome to the GNU Project web server, www.gnu.org. The GNU Project was =
launched in 1984 to develop a complete Unix-like operating system which is =
free software: the GNU system. (GNU is a recursive acronym for ``GNU's Not =
Unix''; it is pronounced "guh-NEW".) Variants of the GNU operating system, =
which use the kernel Linux, are now widely used; though these systems are =
often referred to as ``Linux'', they are more accurately called GNU/Linux =
systems.=20
