I don't think the word ecosystem "(...) implies the absence of intention
and ethics", as stated in this page. It does not implie the presence of
them either. I think they are independant concepts, and that a free
software ecosystem is an acceptable metaphore because it shows that
their is interdependency (in fact free software licence favours this
interdependency).
Can you suggest an alternative word that expresses this simple, yet
fundamental, concept ?
