Well, since they invented the term, to a certain degree they do.
- ternaryoperator 10y agoThey didn't invent the term. The term was invented first. The OSI was founded later. See the OSI's own post on this [1]. A much more detailed discussion of the origin of the term and its initial use appears here [2]. The latter link in particular is interesting reading, because it includes the political dimensions (especiall w.r.t O'Reilly's difficulties with the FSF).
