[off topic] about terminology



Hello everyone,

I hope this question is not too much off topic, but this looks a good place to ask it:

- "free software" is confusing because "free" is "freedom" and "zero costing" together; - "open source" is also confusing because of the slight differences between GPL and just Open source softwares;

So, what about use of the term "libre software" ? It is already working in italian "libero", french "libre" and spanish "libre".


Thanks in advance for your comments.
