The OSI made a huge mistake in choosing to use an non-trademarkable borrowed term as their own trade industry term. The original (and quite long standing) use to refer to publicly available texts is still widely used, and English isn't a prescriptive language outside of legal frameworks like trademark. This is why you really should pick a trademarkable name when you try to define trade marks.
