What does it mean for a website to be free software? I think that is an excellent question! I've never quite understood the objection to Launchpad - as far I can see it is a web site. Though admittedly I only report bugs in it. I generally don't demand the source code to websites that I read (like LWN for example!) but perhaps there is a point where the website becomes complex and intermingled enough with your own data that one should... I'm not sure where or how I would draw the line though.
