[snarfed] yes! the "open source is a gift" idea has been around for a long time. the phrase may have been coined in 2011, https://www.redotheweb.com/2011/11/13/open-source-is-a-gift.html

[KevinMarks] It fits the "Open Source is free as in puppies" framing too. Don't adopt it if you're not going to care for it.
