The only people looking to redefine (yes, redefine, there is no supposed ongoing dispute or vagueness about what it means to be FLOSS software) are those looking to push their own agenda, its not an honest conversation and never has been.
- kemitchell 7y agoThere is heaps of vagueness in both the Open Source Definition and Free Software Definition, especially about copyleft. See, e.g.: https://writing.kemitchell.com/2018/11/05/OSD-Copyleft-Regulation.html https://writing.kemitchell.com/2018/11/05/OSD-Copyleft-Regul... https://blog.licensezero.com/2018/09/14/free-to-take-freedom.html https://blog.licensezero.com/2018/09/14/free-to-take-freedom... There are heaps of disputes about whether licenses qualify. Check OSI's license-review list, or Twitter, or, frankly, HN.
