Although born from the same history of Unix, Internet free software, and the hacker culture as the "[[Free Software]]" movement as defined by [[Richard Stallman]], the formation of the Open Source Initiative, and the choice of the term "open source" was explicitly chosen to:
 
−
:''"…dump the moralizing and confrontational attitude that had been associated with 'free software' in the past and sell the idea strictly on the same pragmatic, business-case grounds that had motivated Netscape…"''<ref>http://www.opensource.org/history</ref>

[[Richard Stallman]] of the [[Free Software Foundation]] criticized this motivation, saying that pragmatic focus of the initiative distracts users from the central moral issues and the freedoms offered by [[free software]], blurring the distinction with semi-free or wholly proprietary software. However, he describes the free software and the Open Source Initiative as separate political camps within the same [[free software community]] and says:

The Open Source Initiative is an organization dedicated to promoting open-source software.

The organization was founded in February 1998, by Bruce Perens and Eric S. Raymond, prompted by Netscape Communications Corporation publishing the source code for its flagship Netscape Communicator product. Later, in August 1998 the organization added a board of directors.

Raymond was president from its founding until February 2005. The current president is Michael Tiemann.
