Today FUTO released an application called Grayjay for Android-based mobile phones. Louis Rossmann introduced the application in a video (YouTube link). Grayjay as an application is very promising, but there is one point I take issue with: Grayjay is not an Open Source application. In the video Louis explains his reason behind the custom license, and while I do agree with his reason, I strong disagree with his method. In this post I will explain what Open Source means, how Grayjay does not meet the criteria, why this is an issue, and how it can be solved.

    Most organisations and individuals that disagree with their definition are trying to sell you source available software as open source.

        RMS doesn’t disagree with OSI about the open source definition. He just thinks his Free Software definition is better. But RMS would most certainly not call “source available” software “open source”
