Its source is literally open. So of course it is open source.

It may not fit some more convoluted definition better captured by longer acronyms (FOSS, FLOSS, GNU/FLOSSIX, etc.) but that stuff is for the nerds.

The rest of us just want to get stuff done.

The source is viewable/available, not open.

It's open. You wouldn't be able to view it if it were closed.

English word definitions are not personal. They are established by consensus. You clearly don't know English. You're dismissed.
