The GPL requires that you provide sources for the portions included in your work. If you include cygwin1.dll, you need to include the sources needed to build cygwin1.dll (this is what we do for snapshots, for example). You don't need to include *all* the cygwin sources (i.e. gcc, gdb, etc) if you don't include those sources in your work. The sources should be made available via the same means and media as the work itself; if you put the work on ftp or floppy then the sources should be on ftp or floppy (respectively), etc. -- Want to unsubscribe from this list?
