ACM uses repeatedly "open software" to refer to postgres/ingres in Turing award announcement http://bit.ly/1BM8M3C | #seriously ?
Only few people understand the difference with "free source"...
Joke aside, few people understand what Free software is, let alone the distinction from Open Source (and I have to admit my tongue usually slips there), save for it being “code that we can look at for free and integrate in proof-of-concept demos, but cannot patent, make IP of or sell”.
This attitude always makes me sad...
