I've also noticed this expectation. Where does it come from?

FOSS means that the code to be free and open-source, not the schedule or the direction of its developer(s).

I dunno, I think at one point there was a similar merge as to what happened with "git and "github" where "open source the licensing" somehow became the same as "open source the collaborative and open software development process", and nowadays people get kind of confused when you say you're doing open source yet you don't accept pull/merge requests.

I propose the FOOSSNO license, fuck off its open source, no obligation, for communication purposes. ;-)

Maybe WTFPL can send the message across? Could maybe make a V3 and add as a second point to it: "1. And don't tell me/ask me about it, just DO WHAT THE FUCK YOU WANT TO"
