Re: Is it free to use

Then why are you here (I mean in this thread)?
GPL means you should include your source code with your binary code.
Simple. Redhat does it, Mandrake does it, Cygnus does it. Cygwin's
sources are included in the download section. Next time, think before
you speak.
Contrary to your opinion I did think before I spoke! I don't think the
people who would use my application would want, know, care about or
understand the source and I didn't want to go through the additional
effort to make them available, place proper attribution in the sources
and require them to download an install Cygwin (if I were to use
cygwin1.dll).
