could anybody explain me what differences theopen source & the free software movements have?
Were you sleeping during RMS's lecture? I believe you were there!
The Open Source Movement is more practical. They don't do much to push the idea of freedom. They are more interested in getting done with the jobs at hand.
Open Source includes more than just the GNU GPL way of licencing. It includes the BSD licence, for example. You can get a list of supported licences from their Web site.
