Hi Guys,
I am considering purchasing the CD version of Cygwin, but I can't
seem to find information the exactly what the runtime license for the
1.0 product is. I only want this to build and potentially distribute
Open Source projects, but the project is not GPL. Some is MPL'ed and
some is X licensed.
So my question is, if I get the CD version 1.0 release, can I build
projects with Cygwin and distribute the runtimes along with the exes
and full source code, if the source is not under GPL? I read on this
mailing list that this was the case with the new license, but I can't
find information on this on red hat's web site (the FAQ seems to
indicate you can only build GPL'ed code under the Cygwin license).
Regards,
