Let me repeat -- the sheer availability of the source doesn't make a software FOSS. Commercial modifications are an important part of all FOSS.
who is talking about FOSS? I said I consider it Open Source Software - OSS
Oh, so FOSS is different from OSS? I thought FOSS was simply a way to combine the words Free Software (FS) and Open Source Software (OSS) to say Free & Open Source Software (FOSS). If you go by the definition, then FS is not different from OSS. So basically all FS is OSS and vice versa (except a *very few* which are not). But I guess I was wrong ...
