 Free Software Foundation of India Weave our own code. Together.
The word `free' in Free Software has a similar meaning as in free speech, free people and free country and should not be confused with its other meaning associated with zero-cost.
Think of Free Software as software which is free of encumbrances, not necessarily free of cost.

The Free Speech leaders now began spreading the word that students should go limp to slow down the removal process.

There are scores of online groups that work to promote free speech on the Internet, but there are a few who stand out because of the scope of their activities, their large presence on the Internet, and their apparently large numbers of supporters.

 My Lisp Experiences and the Development of GNU Emacs - GNU Project - Free Software Foundation (FSF)
That is the basis for the free software movement -- the experience I had, the life that I've lived at the MIT AI lab -- to be working on human knowledge, and not be standing in the way of anybody's further using and further disseminating human knowledge.
The Lisp community in the 70s was not limited to the MIT AI Lab, and the hackers were not all at MIT.
The Lisp machine was able to execute instructions about as fast as those other machines, but each instruction -- a car instruction would do data typechecking -- so when you tried to get the car of a number in a compiled program, it would give you an immediate error.

 Salon Free Software Project BSD Unix: Power to the people, from the code
The Free Speech Movement that had galvanized the university in the '60s belonged to another geological age.
By demonstrating the power of cooperative software development, and by strengthening the software backbone of the Internet so it could further nurture such development, BSD helped enable the creation of a medium that will do more to spread free speech than anything hitherto constructed.
In so doing, they codified a template for what is now referred to as the "open-source software development methodology." Put more simply, the Berkeley hackers set up a system for creating free software.
