− | >Google and Facebook are proper nouns. That means they should be capitalised.
| |
− | I feel like capitalising them give these things respect, when they deserve none. Fine, I won't change these words as you asked me.

− | >"Free" software and (free) "Open Source" software have different meanings.
| |
− | Oh, we got here an "open source" infidel.
| |
− | No, not one person or business has called gratis, proprietary software, "free software" - they say "freeware", "for free", or "it's free" - any readers will very quickly learn what free software means even if they misunderstand it at first.
| |
− | "open source" is a much worse term, as it's as confusing as hell. The only natural meaning is; "you can look at the source code", so that's what almost all people take it to mean.
| |
− | Good luck explaining the 10 "open source" requirements to someone and having them remember it - in most cases they'll go away with; "you can look at the source code".
| |
− | It is high heresy to refer to free software licensed under the GPLv{2,3}, expat, ISC, BSD {0,1,2,3}-clause as "open source".
| |
− | Anyway, it's simply wrong to label software licensed under the GPLv{2,3} as "open source", as "open source" is not written in the license - "free software" is.
