The term free software is defined by the Free Software Foundation at http://www.fsf.org/. From the Wikipedia article at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_software: "Free software, as defined by the Free Software Foundation, is software which can be used, copied, studied, modified and redistributed without restriction. Freedom from such restrictions...
Summary of the impact of Free and Open Source Software: "The FOSS phenomenon is the subject of numerous political, economic, and sociological studies, all reacting to the potential for radical change it embodies. These studies focus mainly on four claims. First, FOSS is a novel technology for producing software: it "represent[s] a new mode of produ...
Carlo Daffara: Free software can be analyzed as "a software model, development model, or business model. These models are orthogonal, like the three axes of the three-dimensional coordinate system, their respective differentiators are control (software model), collaboration (development model), revenue (business model).The software model axis is th...
Summary of the arguments in favour of free software use: Free software is relevant just as free speech is. Software is run everywhere in our society today, governing most of what we can read and do. Unless the user has some fundamental freedoms over it, she/he has no knowledge or authority over what is happening inside it. Free software is enabled ...

"If the first era of free software was about the creation of the fully-rounded GNU/Linux operating system, the second saw a generation of key enterprise applications being written to run on that foundation. Things got moving with the emergence and rapid adoption of the LAMP stack – a term coined in 1998 - a key part of which was (obviously) MySQL (the “M”)."

2. Stefan Meretz:
"A Short History of Free Software (2) There is free software, because there is unfree software. Unfree software is »proprietary software«, which means, it is software that is owned by someone. That would not be bad so far, if the fact of this private property on software would not lead to the exclusion of others. The software owner prevents others from using the software, in order to create a scarce good. To turn software into a scarce good is relatively simple, you just have to hold back the...

"The new paradigm of producing in the digital commons emerged first in software development during the late 1980s. At that time, the notion of software as a standardized product for mass markets was still relatively new, established only in the mid 1970s by a new generation of companies such as Microsoft (founded in 1975). Before that, the computer industry regarded software as an add-on to the actual product, hardware. Improving software through mutual help among programmers was part of the...
Richard Stallman on the difference between free software and Open Source Software
"Some of the proponents of “open source” considered it a “marketing campaign for free software,” which would appeal to business executives by citing practical benefits, while avoiding the [gratis interpretation and sidelining the ethics and social value of a free hacker culture]. Other proponents flatly rejected the free software movement's ethical and social values. Whichever their views, when campaigning for “open source” they did not cite or advocate those values. The term “open source” qu...
Getting Paid for Free Software Development, some key distinctions
Stefan Merten proposes a research program on the influence of 'paid free software development': "A useful survey needs to make sure that those projects areconsidered as much as the big ones are.
The relation between Free Software and Free Culture
Benjamin Mako Hill : "Not only is the free software movement a source of software and licenses, it is also a source of inspiration. In particular, free software has been cited by many in the nascent free culture movement as an explicit source of inspiration and point of departure. While the Free Software Foundation has no position on whether works of culture should be free, many in the free software movement have supported and helped build the new movement for free cultural works. However, fr...

Jess Scully: "Taiwan’s civic hackers were organized around a leaderless collective called g0v (pronounced “gov zero.”) Many believed in radical transparency, in throwing opaque processes open to the light, and in the idea that everyone who is affected by a decision should have a say in it. They preferred establishing consensus to running ...
