What issue are you trying to dodge?

Part of agreeing to make Octave an "official" GNU project is promoting
the ideals of the GNU project.  You are free to use the terms you
prefer, but we should not use terms like "open source" in the Octave
documentation, and I'm asking you to consider saying "free software"
instead when speaking about Octave.
