No.  Nobody is rejecting Free Software.  Free Software is Open Source.
We carry a large umbrella.  Everyone fits under it, even RMS, the FSF,
and every Free Software partisan.  If THEY CHOOSE not to be included,
that is their own pain.  We haven't caused their pain, and we don't
need to ameliorate it.  We don't need to make nicey-nice, not when
Open Source has been a huge success.
