alt Hacker NewsWhat's the deal with the name? Openrsync implies to me that it's an open source alternative to a closed source program. But the original Rsync is GPL? Is this just the pushover license making it "more open"?

Many projects closely associated with OpenBSD start with "open"... openssh, openbgpd, openntpd, opensmtpd etc.

OpenBSD folks would consider the GPL to be less open due to the requirement to apply the GPL to any derivative works.
