Title:
  It's "open-source software", not "Open Source software"

Status in “python-apt” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  The descriptions for main and universe are respectively "Canonical-
  supported Open Source software" and "Community-maintained Open Source
  software".

  From http://catb.org/~esr/open-source.html (I think it's authoritative
  document on this):

  "(A note about usage. In accordance with normal English practice, the
  term is "open source" standing alone, but "open-source" used as an
  adjective or in compounds; thus, "open-source software".)"

  
  By the way, the term "free software" seems to be much better aligned with Ubuntu Philosophy anyway: http://www.ubuntu.com/community/ubuntustory/philosophy
