I think ideology is important and we shold try to say something about it
I also have noticed that by looking over past lectures they fit the title
Free Software much better than the title Linux (Linux is also GPL'ed) even
though I believe ther aren't many club members running BSD as theier
primary OS.

I do not think names are terribly important, but I think it whould be
apropriate to put something on our web site which says something about
Free Software and Open Source. In our W2L lectures we made sure to speak
of ideology and no one seemed to complain.

It is probably possible to right something that says software should be
open source and preferbly free. That most people would agree with.
It is also possible to say something showing both the OSI way and the FS
way.

As to my opinion, I prefer FreeSoftware and I prefer the GPL, but in
somecases for the intrest of a better product for me and others I will use
other licences. And when pushed to the corner I do use closed-source
software.
