Suggestion for editorial change



Hello Debian

I was browsing through the page http://www.debian.org/intro/free

and found room for editorial improvement. I would like to change the underlined wordings in 
"""
Software that is free only in the sense that you don't need to pay to use it is hardly free at all. You may be forbidden to pass it on, and you are almost certainly prevented from improving it. Software licensed at no cost is usually a weapon in a marketing campaign to promote a related product or to drive a smaller competitor out of business. There is no guarantee that it will stay free.
"""
to
"There is no guarantee that it will stay available at no cost"

because that is what I think is meant. Specifically since the page is explaining that free software is not about cost and the example is an example of gratis software that is unlikely to be free.

Best regards
/
Tomas
