 Another group has started using the term <q>open source</q> to mean
-something close (but not identical) to <q>free software.</q>  We prefer
-the term <q>free software</q> because, once you have heard it refers to
-freedom rather than price, <a href="free-software-for-freedom.html">it
-calls to mind freedom</a>.  The word <q>open</q> never does that.
