This article talks about the origins of Richard Stallman's Free Software Foundation, BSD license, GPL license, "Open Source Software" and "Free Software", and the creation of the Linux Software Development Model. This is especially useful in understanding the difference between "Free Software" and "Open Source Software", because there are key differences. I myself subscribe to the belief that 'Free Software' is too ambiguous in the English language (especially in America culture), and 'Open Source' is less misunderstood by the general public and business community. 'Free Software' itself should be thought of as 'Software Libre', emphasizing the Liberty being the important part of the word 'Free Software', not necessarily the price. So I guess that makes me an Open Source and/or Liberty of Software advocate.
