Oops. I forgot to address your previous comment (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-manual/+bug/571524/comments/4). I understand your preference for FOSS; however, I'm reluctant to drop an acronym like that into a beginner's manual without proper explanation. And such explanation would inevitably lead to the kinds of definitions you're suggesting that the section avoid. I definitely think we can strike a balance between technical and social priorities in our explanation of the terms that make Ubuntu special, but I think we'll need to attach a concrete and established label to it.

Status in Ubuntu Manual: Confirmed Bug description: I've made an annotation for the open source definition in the current version of the published manual: http://www.co-ment.net/embed/2458/public_view/ I've noted all the glaring inaccuracies which will continue a lot of the misconceptions about what FOSS is and why it's important. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-manual Post to : ubuntu-manual@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-manual More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
