f3caa4bf6b More fine-tuned changes to s/Open Source/Free Software/g. 
While I liked Donald's changes in the previous commit enough to take them,
and I don't agree with SFLC's (who was the last to edit those words in this
document) preference for "FOSS", I did want to make some fine tuned changes
that I think are appropriate:

  * say "software freedom" rather than "Free Software" anywhere it fits the
    sentence.

  * Capitalize "Free Software" like that, rather than lower case as Donald's
    change did.

  * Say "copylefted" in a few places where that was the stronger implication.

  * Say "Open Source" in two specific places where the intention is to
    include OSI-approved licenses that may not be Free Software licenses.

bdb224a606 Replaced "GPL" with "the GPL" wherever it was used to refer to the license, 
but *not* when used when referring to GPL'd software or GPL violation or GPL
enforcement, etc.
