Mandatory schmandatory. "Credit where credit is due" is enough of a
reason to insist that it be called by it's true name: "Debian
GNU/Linux". Debian is far more than just Linux. My hat's off to the GNU
project, and if you think you owe them nothing (or that avoiding giving
them credit is something desirable/admirable) you are deluding yourself
(and probably only yourself).

good times,
