Calling Proprietary Energy Planning Software 'Open Source'

[Max Parzen]

Hi openmodders,

I've noticed several recent cases where proprietary energy planning software has been presented as open source (likely intentionally). I wrote a short note on why I think this distinction matters on LinkedIn & openmod.

Any help spreading the word about those articles is highly welcome. Proprietary software shouldn't be sold as open-source. 

Best wishes,

Max
