You mention the word Libre. You call it FOSS: Free and Open Source Software. Later you're talking about how "free" means "gratis" in English. Some people, including me, use FLOSS instead of FOSS. The L stands for Libre which is the French word for Liberty. Liberty -in contrast to Free- has only one meaning according to my English dictionary. Therefore, i use the term FLOSS instead.
