Thank you for the informative discussion of the different meanings of 
"free" software. I am reminded of a quote from Janet McKnight:

"People generally seem to want software to be free as in speech and/or 
free as in beer. Unfortunately rather too much of it is free as in jazz."

Have a good day!

Best wishes,
Clint
