OpenSourceSoftware

Software whose source code is available to everyone. This is distinct from Free software. Free software is often OpenSourceSoftware but not always visa-versa. This distinction is often made within the OS movement as "Free speech, not Free beer." OpenSourceSoftware is an example of a Commons.
