Another question on the GPL: if I release a program under the GPL, can
I call it GNU-something-or-other, or is the GNU designation "reserved"
for programs with copyright owned by the FSF?  Any opinions or
definitive answers?  (It's not an entirely hypothetical question at
the moment, though the program in question is still much too shaky to
release).
