I see two problems with this "orthogonal" definition of SaaS: (1) it doesn't really match the common meaning of the term and (2) it is so broad than I don't see any website that it does *not* cover. I agree FSF's definition can also have some problems, but at least it's narrow enough to limit the topic. > We could use more examples, but honestly I'm not sure anything > relating to Wave is intuitive for many people.

I think it is OSSD-conformant, but I'll forward the question to the developers and let them reply if they can.
