[Koha] Off topic: Do you consider Android to be open source software?

I guess I consider it open-source, but with the loosest of definitions.

It is so proprietary. I am an idealist who prefers the Richard Stahlman
vision for tech as long as there are options still available.
Open source is not as important as OS if it is not also free.

Thanks,

Jesse
