people have different opinions of those short terms.
Yours just coincidentally is shared by virtually nobody and it just so
happens that this arbitrary definiton matches exactly your software
which you wish to call 'open source' for PR reasons.
Right, just by the majority of e.g. all Windows and OS X users, hmm who
reflect the majority of all users anyway. And right, I forgot I'm promoting a
product. Thanks Dave for enlighten us about the truth! Now I clearly see
there is only white and nothing else than white! Well, maybe black, but the
black ones are evil by definition and don't count.
Then why not call it MS or AS and be done with it?
