> Sounds good. Where would 'open core' or 'open surface' fall?

The idea is to have something more useful than such labels. E.g. a part
of the offer could be proprietary because it is a connector to a
proprietary software not important for the functionality, and you
legally cannot publish it under a Free Software license. That should not
be on the same level as important pieces of functionality missing.

Matthias
