Could you suggest another description that we could use that would be
more appropriate for us?
I think that we should use "free software license, preferably copyleft"

Just "free software license" linked to
http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html would exactly match with the

+1 (since that seems to be the accepted policy might as well keep it

RMS quote on http://www.documentfoundation.org/supporters/ and would
include both free-permissive licenses (Apache) and free-copyleft
licenses (LGPL). 

Anything else would be a new interpretation of the original statement
