I wish the terms "Free Software" and "Open Source" were legally protected to the same extent that "Champagne" is.

- ip26 4y agoAh yes, you can only call it “Open Source” if the source code is certified by the D.O.P. as written in Manila. All other source may go by names such as “Permissive Source” or “Unclosed Source”. “Free Software” is prohibited; a small donut shop it Tennessee aggressively defends its trademark on the word “Free”, as applied to coffee (which is widely understood to be the primary ingredient in Software).
