Freelance Writing – ArcticLlama

So, is it open-source or open source?

Missing from the pages of the Associated Press Stylebook is the correct use of the term open-source which until recently I had been using as just open source.  Recently, an editor disagreed and though neither of us could find a definitive source, the editor always wins the ties.  So, now I have to remember to write open-source for him, while I continue to write open source elsewhere.

Ah, the joys of writing :)
