Description lars.nooden 2008-10-02 17:11:27 UTC 
The licenses listed for some extensions is given as the pejorative "freeware"

Please use a more accurate and less insulting description.  Open Source, Free
Software or GPL/LGPL/etc would be appropriate.

There is no intent to degrade any of the categories or licenses. The author of
an extension may choose from the categories Freeware, Open Source, Shareware,
... according to the license.
You may want to contact the author(s) and recommend the choice of a more
appropriate category.
