Comment on Why the term "open source" is important

Comments

A bit of context for HNers before/after reading -- This is from the personal blog of the creator of Bookstack[0], which is licensed under MIT.

I agree with the post and also other posters here that in that the post skips over the free/open software debate which is also quite relevant.

Author here. Thanks for adding some context, I touch on the lack of of mention of "free software" in my comment here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32301331

No worries, love your work on Bookstack - it's awesome, and shows your commitment to open source.

That's lovely to hear, thank you very much!
