Yes. I agree that "Open Source" should mean software where the source is
open, and the more restrictive view should be called "free". After all,
FOSS means "free and open source software", so there must be a difference...

I also think that "object oriented design" should refer to a design
whose structure is oriented by the notion of object, which does not
necessarily imply classification and inheritence. The latter should
better be called "classification oriented design".

But it's not the way those terms are used. Sigh...
