John,

AFAICT, you are violating the GPL by not providing the source for
Cygwin's setup program that you appear to distribute in binary only:

    http://burks.brighton.ac.uk/burks/software/langs/install.sw?1.cygwin.exe#1.cygwin.exe

If you are distributing the source, then make it more apparent (i.e.,
easier to find).  Otherwise, add the source that corresponds exactly to
your distributed binary to your web site.

Thanks,
Jason
