=C2=A0 =C2=A0 iterm2, a widely used open source terminal on OSX,

Is it free software, or not? =C2=A0That makes a difference to how we<= br> should respond:

=C2=A0 =C2=A0 Could a core emacs developer give them some feedbacks ? (does= emacs
=C2=A0 =C2=A0 requires a special encoding ?)

If it is free software, we should help; if not, we shouldn't.

"Open source" is not equivalent to free software. =C2=A0Most open= source
programs are free, but there are some exceptions. =C2=A0From the
information available, we cannot tell whether this program is free or
proprietary.

See http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/open-source-misses-the= -point.html
for more explanation of the difference between free software and open
source. =C2=A0See also http://thebaffler.com/past/the_meme_hustler for Evgeny Morozov's article on the same point.
