[ubuntu-uk] ubuntu sophisticated

[Toby Smithe]

I hasten to point out that freeware is not free software; in any way.
Free software is a system of morals and ethics which somehow results in
much of the software involved being free - as in price - to use.
Freeware only implies the latter, and implies not the former.
