===========
 
447
 
 
448
Bazaar is a GNU project and uses standard GNU terminology, especially:

450
 * Use the word "Linux" to refer to the Linux kernel, not as a synechoche
 
451
   for the entire operating system.  (See `bug 528253
 
452
   <https://bugs.launchpad.net/bzr/+bug/528253>`_).
 
453
