OpenSource vs Free Software

 

Dear friends,

I know that the Ubuntu is not 100% FOSS but I feel that in the document, we are using too much Open Source instead of Free Software / FOSS. Say in

   Mark recognized the power of Linux and open source, but he also saw
   its weaknesses that prevented mainstream use.

I think most of the times, it is more accurate if we use FOSS instead of OpenSource because the FREE part is the one which makes FOSS "strong" and not the "Open Source".

Yours,
Jadi
