I just edited the free tag to be as it and FLOSS and open-source are currently being used and my opinion on the matter. http://softwarerecs.stackexchange.com/tags/free/info Then I was thinking I'd bring it up over her forgetting that it had already been brought up.
Anyways what do people think of my edit there - and if you don't have edit viewing privs yet:
The `free` tag is to be used when you are looking for a software recommendation specifically for free (as in no-cost) software. If you are looking for open-source software you should use the `open-source` tag. If you're looking for software that is both open source and free you should use the `floss` tag.
