La désignation open source a été suggérée par Christine Peterson du Foresight Institute afin de lever l’ambiguïté de l’expression anglaise free software. En effet, free possède deux signification : « libre » au sens de « liberté » et « gratuit ». Cette nouvelle désignation permet de rappeler aux utilisateurs qu’un logiciel a un coût. Il s’agit également de choisir un vocabulaire correspondant mieux au monde des affaires, le terme free (« gratuit ») de free software risquant d’inquiéter les entreprises. (Extrait de Wikipedia)
