3. If it is using free software, no license need be produced.

  And surely we will have to define what free means .. :-)

I guess in the document we need to make it mandatory to mention what
type of "free (as defined by fsf.org or gnu.org)" or "free (as in
gratis)"

cops dont understand definitions. A list of linux distros need to be given. And a list of commonly used software should also be given - such software should require a license. Example of the list would be:

Microsoft windows - various versions
coreldraw
pagemaker
photoshop
RHEL

under distros that dont require license

fedora
mandriva
slackware
debian
gnewsense
freebsd
openbsd

etc etc
