CAAST and FLOSS - Acronym Wars

" Mr. Brooks then compares Freshmeat software to commercial software. Freshmeat software is much closer to Win32 shareware in terms of ease of use, documentation, and packaging than even the most piddling commercial package. "

Hmm,

Freshmeat software happens to include Apache, MySQL, Samba, and OpenOffice.org to select a few high profile names. These and many other FLOSS programs listed on Freshmeat easily outclass all competing commercial packages. Freshmeat appears to be a great place to look for quality software in easy to install formats, and to get a preview of what to expect next. The author of the above comment clearly needs to FLOSS more often.
