Said By Aron Schatz
Even Linus...
Linus is overrated. He's a great programmer and good at managing a sizable software project, but in the big picture, he's not all that important; his name is big because GNU/Linux is usually referred to as "Linux".
GNU/Linux is a fairer name because Linux depends on GNU, but GNU doesn't depend on Linux - The core components of the system are part of the GNU project.
GNU/Linux also indirectly refers to libre (free) software, whereas Linus is a big name in open source, and had no problem with using non-free software (BitKeeper) a lot for free software development in the past.
I case you haven't noticed, my beliefs are closer to the FSF than the OSI
