    Open Source rests upon principles... basic human priciples of openness
    "Free software is a matter of liberty, not price. To understand
the concept, you should think of free as in free speech,
not as in free beer."
    http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html
    The freedom to copy, the freedom to use, the freedom to modify, and the freedom to share.

Just to confuse things:
    the idea of open-source beer has been around since the 1990's as a joke: http://humorix.org/articles/1998/08/beer/
    The Danish Hacker/Artist Krew SuperFlex did it for real:
