Comment 5 for bug 630731

I have a few more comments to address the previous reasoning:

I have partially already addressed this but to make it clear: USC can help address the muddling of the environment by simply differentiating between freedom and price. I.e. classify packages as "Gratis" vs. "$PRICE" in one field and differentiating between Free Software (or OSI-Certified if you must) and Proprietary in another field, as is already the case. Allow filters to be defined on each field separately. Active Filters can prominently indicated visually with an easy "Remove all Filters" UI-Element.

I would also like to observe that, ignoring the content offerings, currently USC advertises two proprietary applications in the banner, five proprietary applications in "what's new" and another proprietary application as a suggestion vs. 24 'Open Source' applications. So a quarter of the front page offering software offering is proprietary software.
