But it's not software! How can it be open source? (or free software, for
that matter)

Yadis is the specification of a protocol. There's no guarantee that all
implementations of it will be open source, and even if they are that's
just a happy co-incidence, not a fundamental property of the system.

I think the correct buzz-word to use is
"identoparablogifolkaloginagogamy". That word should speak for itself!
