I keep coming across people who choose to define software as closed and shared.
Shareware being closed code projects which are offered on a
conditional free basis?

Open source and free software are not 'shareware' they are projects
based around transparency of code and freedom to participate, they may
also be cash free.

Not sure which flavour of word use this is but these days the word
shareware makes my
word politics filter beep.
