[haiku] How free is Haiku?

Hi, all.

I'm new to the list, so 'Hello!' to all.

My background is GNU/Linux, as a past sys admin and user for about 10 years.
I'm intrigued by Haiku, but was wondering how 'open source' it is.

It seems that much of the software is released under an MIT type licence,
but I was wondering, as a whole, does the project aim to comply with the '4
software freedoms'?

Can anyone clarify?

Cheers,

Chris.
