(Getting into semantics a bit here...)

I should have written "(what I believe to be the) definition of open
source software as used by the Fedora Project". That is not an opinion,
but a perception of a situation. I could share your definition of what
open source software is (opinion), but still believe it not to be the
generally accepted opinion (perception/believe).

need to tell him that).
