Hi,
I was wondering as to which license applies to the software I downloaded.
I got the source code I am using from Xorg. More specifically, I
downloaded the xorg-server package from the release site of Xorg. I
know that Cygwin and Cygwin/X are published under the GNU GPL. I
oh. Which Cygwin/X source-file has a GPL on it?
(Cygwin of course is GPL, but that's an comment of the source used).
also know that the X project, led by the X.org Foundation is published
under the MIT License. Does the XWin part of the source I downloaded
use the GPL license, or the MIT license ?
This is probably the wrong place to ask about licenses (google "Cygwin/X
gpl" for grins.
