I think that this is a good point, and we'll attempt to avoid giving the
word 'Free' too prominent attention.

Okay, hereby I declare that we can also use the phrase 'Libre Software'
as an alternative for 'open source software' in some contexts.

This all fits in with my theory that we can offend RMS freely if we 
like. Now only if we could fit in the word 'communism' in there somewhere
to really offend ESR.. Perhaps 'socialism' will do. :)

As was already said, please do set up a team for this, and run it together
with Nicolas Pettiaux and whomever else is interested. See the teams page:
