'''Free and open-source software''' ('''F/OSS''', '''FOSS''') or  '''free/libre/open-source software''' ('''FLOSS''') is software that is both [[free software]] and [[open source]]. It is [[free software licence|liberally licensed]] to grant users the right to use, copy, study, change, and improve its design through the availability of its [[source code]].<ref>{{cite web|last=Free Software Foundation|title=What is free software?|url=http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html|accessdate=14 December 2011}}</ref> This approach has gained both momentum and acceptance as the potential benefits{{clarification needed|date=April 2012}} have been increasingly recognized by both individuals and corporations.<ref>{{cite web

In the context of [[Free software|free]] and [[open-source software]], ''free'' refers to the freedom to copy and re-use the software, rather than to the price of the software. The [[Free Software Foundation]], an organization that advocates the free software model, suggests that, to understand the concept, one should "think of free as in free speech, not as in free beer".<ref>{{cite web

FOSS is an inclusive term that covers both [[free software]] and [[open source software]], which despite describing similar development models, have differing cultures and philosophies.<ref>Feller (2005), p. 89, 362</ref> In the 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s, it was normal for computer users to have the freedoms that are provided by free software.

Free software focuses on the fundamental freedoms it gives to users, whereas open source software focuses on the perceived strengths of its peer-to-peer development model.<ref>Feller (2005), pp. 101–106, 110–111.</ref> FOSS is a term that can be used without particular bias towards either political approach.

[[Free software licence]]s and [[open source license]]s are used by [[List of open source software packages|many software packages]]. While the licenses themselves are in most cases the same, the two terms grew out of different philosophies and are often used to signify different distribution methodologies.<ref>{{cite web
