Hello,

	sorry if it is an offtopic but I have been searching unsuccesfuly.

I am preparing a cdrom distribution with useful software for the rest of
the students of the faculty where I study, most of the software will be
GNU ( DOS and Linux ) in order to promote this kind of expression on my
university.

I am a DJGPP programmer and I am very happy with it, that is why I want
to include it on the distribution in order to make it available to all (
locally ).  I read the FAQ and I understood that I can redistribute it
without problems, is it right ?  I must put the source code too, but for
space restrictions can I explain where to get them instead of include
them on the cdrom ?

I would like to know the same about the Cygwin distribution, do I have
to include the sources or can I refer to them ?

I am a little confused about OPENDOS.  I think that it is what now
became to DRDOS.  I have read that it is 'free' for non comercial use,
is it true ?  can I use it in my home ?  students can use it without
problems ?  someone know about the redistribution restrictions ?

There is a DRDOS distribution for DOSEMU that is aparently free (
complete ) but no redistributable, I revisited the page and it is
changed, it doesn't have more information, just a download link. 
someone can explain me its licence ?



I know that this is not the best place to ask the most of my questions,
but I have been searching without success and I want to prepare this
compendium of tools for students as fast as I can. ( promoting the
software that I like makes me happy :) )

thank you for your help,
