At http://www.gnu.org there is a description of the FSF and the GNU
project. The FSF is an organisation. GNU is a project of the FSF. The
GPL is a document administered by the FSF and used as part of the GNU
project. Anything that the FSF incorporates into the GNU project is open
source, and uses the GPL. However, open source is a phenomenon/concept
that also exists throughout the wider world (without needing to have any
direct ties with the FSF, GNU or GPL).
