Subject: [Bug 89551] New: GNU is frequently spelled Gnu
Date: Thu, 11 Dec 2014 02:45:10 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <bug-89551-11311@https.bugzilla.kernel.org/> (raw)

            Bug ID: 89551
           Summary: GNU is frequently spelled Gnu
           Product: Documentation
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: low
          Priority: P1
         Component: man-pages
          Assignee: documentation_man-pages-ztI5WcYan/vQLgFONoPN62D2FQJk+8+b@public.gmane.org
          Reporter: lorenzo567-1ViLX0X+lBJBDgjK7y7TUQ@public.gmane.org
        Regression: No

The official spelling of GNU is GNU and not Gnu. However, the Linux kernel
documentation (including documentation included with the source code) often has
it spelled Gnu. A good example is the Changes text file in the Documentation
folder of recent source code archives. It has GNU Make spelled Gnu Make, GNU
GCC spelled Gnu GCC, etc. This may be a minhor typo )that occurs many times in
several parts of its documentation), but I think it makes Linux look
improfessional and should be fixed whenever possible.
