Rationale
The word "libre" is in danger of being diluted which will eliminate its advantages:
- disambiguates "free as in freedom" from "free as in beer"
- it is used extensively in free/libre software and free/libre knowledge contexts to emphasise the freedom perspective.
This is not intended as a "fork".
