Please forget my last message asking for more information.
http://www.gnu.org/gnu/gnu-linux-faq.html is enough.

With time, the words "GNU" and "Linux" and "GNU/Linux" are becoming synonyms, 
even if "GNU/Linux" is preferable to share credit. You can't avoid the 
mythological interpretation of people and the evolution of languages.

Alan, with respect to the beauty of your work, the words GNU/Linux belongs to 
Humanity, not to a particular person or group of persons registering a 
trademark.

In a few years, men will have exhausted oil, gaz, maybe pure water and fresh 
air. What will you say then: "trademark"? Does it sound like a powerful 
concept for the future?
