Here there are some terms: Open Source, GPL, ...

Open Source: http://www.opensource.org/docs/definition.php
GPL: listed as one of those open source licenses.

There is a category page at GNU:

http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/categories.html

People tend to be confused about these terms.  When you just
write some little projects, that's probably no big deal; when
you try to start a business, you may need to be careful on the
wording and licenses.
