Linking Exception. - -As a special exception to GPLv3+, Red Hat grants you permission to link -software whose sources are distributed under a license that satisfies -the Open Source Definition with libcygwin.a, without libcygwin.a -itself causing the resulting program to be covered by GPLv3+. - -This means that you can port an Open Source application to Cygwin, and -distribute that executable as if it didn't include a copy of -libcygwin.a linked into it. Note that this does not apply to the -Cygwin DLL itself. If you distribute a (possibly modified) version of -the Cygwin DLL, you must adhere to the terms of GPLv3+, including the -requirement to provide sources for the Cygwin DLL, unless you have obtained -a special Cygwin license to distribute the Cygwin DLL in only its binary -form (see below). - -See http://www.opensource.org/docs/osd/ for the precise Open Source -Definition referenced above. - - -2.
