What is with the selective reading style in this thread?

I saw that a referenced LGPL license is unacceptable for cygwin.

Gerrit responds with a pointer to a BSD licensed version.  Asks if
it is acceptable.

I say probably but you'd have to ask the newlib mailing list.

Nicholas responds eight hours after this interchange.  He opines that I
probably don't know about the Red Hat employees who run the glibc
project and offers that somebody should find a BSD licensed version of
ftw.

Now, a day later, we find that Gerrit's email has again been ignored
and the Wourms plan is unworkable.

Odd.
