That depends on the definition of "free". For the FSF, free always means
free as in "freedom" or in "free speech", NOT as in "free beer" (free of
charge).
For software to be free software, in the FSF sense, it MUST also be Open
Source, while the opposite might not always be true.

ACK. Seen to much good pieces of software disappear just because some
company was un(able|willing) to continue its development.

ACK (with s/Open Source/Free Software/).
