Jos jedan harpun u celo FOSSa

Ja ne znam ni za jedan distro koji je 100% GPL, već se koriste i druge licence za pojedine pakete.

Da je RHEL 100% bilo slobodan u smislu definicije fondacije ya slobodan softver, bilo otvoren u smislu definicije inicijative za otvoreni kod, on bi bio redistributivan, tj. svako ko ga nabavi legalnim putem bi mogao legalno da ga obesi na internet i distribuira dalje. Međutim, to očigledno nije slučaj.

> CentOS developers use Red Hat's source code to create a final product very similar to Red Hat Enterprise Linux. Red Hat's branding and logos are changed because Red Hat does not allow them to be redistributed.[4]

Dakle, RHEL nije redistributivan (zbog žigova, a ne softvera, svejedno), pa ga ne treba ni uzimati kao primer FOSS-a.

>“Free software” is a matter of liberty, not price. To understand the concept, you should think of “free” as in “free speech,” not as in “free beer.”

>“Free software” does not mean “noncommercial.” A free program must be available for commercial use, commercial development, and commercial distribution. Commercial development of free software is no longer unusual; such free commercial software is very important. You may have paid money to get copies of free software, or you may have obtained copies at no charge. But regardless of how you got your copies, you always have the freedom to copy and change the software, even to sell copies.

>When talking about free software, it is best to avoid using terms like “give away” or “for free,” because those terms imply that the issue is about price, not freedom. Some common terms such as “piracy” embody opinions we hope you won't endorse. See Confusing Words and Phrases that are Worth Avoiding for a discussion of these terms. We also have a list of proper translations of “free software” into various languages.

Software jeste free (as in speech)... artwork i ime nije.
