Being unfamiliar with the word "libre", I've checked several dictionaries
online, and printed ones, and i've come to the conclusion libre isn't a word in
the English language. I did find "librae", which is defined as the British
Pound. Perhaps we should stick to using words which have previously been
defined in dictionaries when describing how free and open our fonts are?
