I wrote up a small program and a web page about it to answer the question
for me: "Are more licenses approved by the Free Software Foundation, or
instead by the Open Source Initiative?" Here is a summary [0] of my
findings:
* Licenses approved by FSF alone: 51
* Licenses approved by OSI alone: 43
* Licenses approved by both: 16
Here's a fact, if you believe my results: There are more "Free Software"
licenses than "Open Source" licenses.
