True that "open" is such an overloaded term. It basically took Apple
to redefine Microsoft as "less closed", although Microsoft is still
more closed than i.e. Google (which again is less open than Apache).
Open source is a specialization, it sounded like some of the Posse
gang equated Steve Job's talk about openness (transparency, leniency)
with open source, which is a different thing.
