I would like to leave a comment, not directly related to the words to
use, but to a possible misunderstanding of the word "free" among
translators. If it is possible, when using the word "free" in a
translatable string, it would really be appreciated to have a
translators-comment just before it, explaining the real use of the word
"free": if as in "free beer", or whatever.

This has been done in current software-center version for the string
used as the price of the software, but nor for the "Get Free Software"
one. This could lead to a not correct interpretation of the real meaning
or the real purpose.

Hope this might be useful.
