If my customers want to actually use OpenSSL themselves, they would need to download the OpenSSL software from cygwin.com and comply with the licensing terms. My question is: Can my manual incorporate documentation that I download from cygwin.com, such as the OpenSLL man page?=A0 In performing my due diligence= , I read the Cygwin Licensing Page but I didn't find any copyright information there.=A0 I also looked through the mail archives and likewise didn't find this question addressed there. Can you let me know if my manual can incorporate documentation such as man pages downloaded from Cygwin.com?=A0 If this is acceptable, do I need to include a copyright statement referencing Cygwin? Thank you very much for your help with my question. Sincerely, Dave Sweetser
