cygwin1.dll source to be specific

I did indeed find the source to identd in the obvious place.

<sarcasm off>
lol

always a great wit there - the bridge one earlier had the office and the mud 
laughing :)

but 'seriously' i just dont care enough to send one onwards to the person.  
But, I think it is just wrong, to not let the people who Might care, know.

Wierd point of view, yes
but thats me.

<sarcasm back on>

Gareth - seriously going to start work on a new release of nano any day now

previous mailing list discussions on this topic state that if they 
distribute the cygwin1.dll, they have to distribute the source code for that 
particular version.
So either way its a violation. (ie linking isnt good enough, according to 
previous discussions) - I am still in digital unix at uni so i have no idea 
if it compiles with current cygwin, anyway.

But, it was a headsup, not a 'i am deeply concerned about this' or I would 
of emailed the person responsible for the web site in the first place.  If i 
was one of the cygwin developers, maybe i would feel differently, but as a 
user headsup is enough from me.

Gareth

hi ...

before i get flammed like last time - i dont really care about this, its 
just a heads up incase someone else does.

http://freeware.teledanmark.no/identd/
uses cygwin1.dll - and might not be providing source ... I cant find it... 
unless its in cygwin-b20-full.exe.  Which i cant check since i am not near a 
windows box.
Certainly doesnt make it clear where the source is.

Anyway ... just a 'if anyone cares' I ran into it trying to find an identd 
solution for players at the mud I help run. (stupid aol ips change so much 
that theres no way to tell any of the aol players apart, good from the bad)

hmmm, there isnt an identd for cygwin by any chance ... i dont see anything 
in a package search, if not maybe i can look into the portability of one...

Gareth
