Hmmm indeed!
I don't have a good answer ready.
Improvising, perhaps this:
What is the place _and_ the relative weight of the Free Software Foundation _today_ in the world (spectrum, if you like) of what is informally called Free and Open Source Software?
If you have a better designation for the latter, by all means use it, since it would be a shame to be distracted here by the choice of terminology.
Also, you may well find a better way of rephrasing the whole question, but I hope I managed to convey the point.
Bandali's personal opinion, yes, of course, definitely.

@vnikolov@ieji.de thanks! I might say free-as-in-libre software to avoid the discussion of 'open source' as such. I just boosted this to mean I would welcome additional questions and comments for @bandali viz our live discussion coming up in 17 hours anticipated here: https://gamerplus.org/@screwlisp/116954796430120143 #libre #software #FSF #interview #mastoquestions sharpsign sorta .
