If I may add what shall be already well known, "open source" is not
free software philosophy.
Philosophy of "open source" is quite different and was quite different
when the group started forming itself.
Pushing and promoting free software philosophy and user rights will
have and has way greater impact and is way more beneficial to society,
than pushing and promoting software alone in itself as open source is
doing.
Even using the term "open source" is not adequate, as then public get
misunderstood words, and never finds out what is free software
philosophy.
