I don't think that anyone will argue that Cygnus should be paid royalties or license fees when proprietary, non-GPL software is sold and uses cygwin.dll at runtime... The issue is HOW MUCH ? Knowing the cost makes a huge difference in knowing whether using Cygnus libraries is worth it over native win32 development. Developers and those making business decisions are entitled to know this up front. So once again HOW MUCH ? Phil Smith AEInc. - For help on using this list, send a message to "gnu-win32-request AT cygnus DOT com" with one line of text: "help".
