I realize people are going to misuse the term Open Source. However, the

"Open Source" is NOT trademarked. They tried for it and didn't get it.
Instead they got "Open Source Initiative Approved License", which is
just a certification label. However, I do agree, open source has a
specific meaning which requires freedom to redistribute.
