> So - in practice - essentially, it's MS-supported (although hosted by Canonical) GNU on Windows. I don't care how it's marketed. Let me remind you that there have been numerous ports of GNU tools for the Windows operating system in the past. This does not allow you to run any more GNU tools on Windows than you previously had. Therefore, essentially, this is not about "GNU on Windows". This is about running "Ubuntu Linux software on Windows" including, of course, and in addition to numerous other tools, the GNU tools. Also, the original statement was: "That is just GNU running on the Windows kernel." This is obviously not just that.
