    That discussion concluded essentially the same thing I said: that both the OSI and the FSF have essentially the same conditions.

    Don’t police perfectly innocent and common use of language please.

    Using “open source” for all kinds of source, regardless of how restrictive it’s license is, is definitely not a common use of the term. People aren’t gonna start using “open source” like that just because a few people find it convenient and wanna police the term to force it to include software with source available, just because for their marketing it makes it sound more appealing.
