No - when most people use the term "open source", they mean something along the lines of the Open Source Definition (http://opensource.org/definition), rather than the literal meaning; this is independent from the distinctions between open source and free software, which are mostly about philosophy rather than the set of applicable licenses (http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-software-for-freedom.html)

I suppose that you, however, do not, which makes what I was trying to say irrelevant.
