    Maybe because it’s ON GITHUB??

      Thst’s not at all how it works. The definitions made in the TOS do not “leak” out of said TOS (unless the TOS specifies that, which it does not).

        @sweng It’s much more likely that the term follows the github’s definition, because it’s on github, rather than the wikipedia’s definition, because why would it? You keep hanging on one word in a wikipedia article, let me fix that article and maybe we can stop this nonsense discussion.
