Open Source is defined by the OSI's Open Source Definition
Read OriginalThis article argues for the importance of the Open Source Initiative's (OSI) Open Source Definition as the standard. It critiques viewpoints, often from commercial entities, that seek to redefine 'open source' to be more financially favorable to themselves, comparing such efforts to brand dilution and dishonest marketing. The author maintains that the orthodox definition is crucial for preserving the specific rights and values associated with open source software.
