I found this article very interesting:
Free software and open source: The freedom debate and its consequences 
by Mathias Klang.

“Without arriving at particular conclusions the posts included views in 
part on the lack of user awareness on what was property within the 
computer, on the difference between free, gratis, and libre in different 
languages and cultures and the need for both a common terminology and 
infrastructure. This paper is not an attempt to resolve these issues but 
to bring these questions to the attention of a wider audience in the 
hope that the discussion will continue.”
