Error in editors page in Visual Studio Code voice

In awesome-editors page there is an error: Visual Studio Code is marked as a Cross-platform open-source text editor while it is only built on open-source, as anyone can read here. It's source code is available at this link.
In fact Vistual Studio Code and the code which on is based are distributed under two different licenses.
I suggest you to edit the description of Visual Studio Code from current one to One of the most used text editor, hackable, flexible and based on open source code distributed by Microsoft or something similar, so it won't be misleading as it is right now.

By the way thanks for this awesome project.

I feel like this is just nitpicking. The editor code is open source. The binary distribution of it is not, but all they do is to add some branding and telemetry, so in practice is would call it open source.
