[Trisquel-users] On "Open Source Hardware"

[gramex]

I recently got an Arduino[1], and am glad to know that it works with free  
software. Many shields (Arduino expansion boards) are "Open Source Hardware".  
This is silly because there is no source code for printed circuit boards. It  
means the schematic is publicly available and the circuit board design is  
available under a free license, usually CC BY-SA. What would be a more  
appropriate term? Free hardware may mean gratis hardware; freedom-respecting  
hardware should mean that it works with free software.
