Hello,

This is a bikeshed question, i.e. everyone is expert enough to have an
opinion. As such this has been discussed numerous times on this list.
search the archives and pick whatever theory seems reasonable for your
use.
BTW, having "GNU/Linux -> Freedom" in your sig file when posting to a
*BSD list is a bit of a _faux pas_, wouldn't you agree? (You do know
that *BSD isn't Linux, don't you?)

HTH,
