Actually, the GNU project has nothing to do with "Open Source" and never did. GNU started over a decade before the term "Open Source" was coined or before that movement began. The GNU project launched the "Free Software" movement which has profoundly different philosophical underpinnings. http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-software-for-freedom.html has more information on this.
