Hey, that's not true - neither yourself nor OSI or anyone else gets to decide that. If the nice folks at MongoDB continue to release their source code, then it's open source. End of story.

- ken 8y agoPre-GNU/BSD/Linux Unix included source code, too, but I don't think anyone would claim it was "open source" in any sense of the word.
