I once wrote Richard Stallman suggesting what I thought was a much more helpful name, keeping all the good connotations but with less of the ambiguity:

Liberating Software

But I never heard back.



Some people use the term "Libre" or "Free as in Speech" also.


I know that. That's why I wanted to choose a two-word English phrase which immediately conveyed the right thing without the downsides.
