Did anyone else read this?  I read it quickly, and I didn't see a single 
mention of software freedom.

Saw RMS speak on Tuesday night, and he said he thinks that people who coined 
the term "open source" have succeeded in turning the discussion away from the 
philosophical and ethical concerns that led to GNU and the FSF.  Based on 
what I saw in this publication, he is certainly correct.
