From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Too bad that luanti.org is note available...
Not sure why this was upvoted, the blog says it's theirs.
They have already bought .org and .net. I guess they just haven't set them up yet.
Also
luanti.net(which would be the most logical step to use that address because of the same TLD).Why isn't something like this done prior to announcing the new name ...
