- Subject: Question about Cygwin License
I want to use cygwin with a proprietary system.
As I do not want to publish my source code, I know I need a "breakout"
license from RedHat.
I am not changing cygwin, I am simply using the cygwin.dll to get a Unix
based system to run under Windows.
Has anyone purchased a breakout license?
I was told today that the cost was $50,000.00 USD for a 3 year license.
Does that sound right?
It seems unbelievably high to me, considering that MKS has a very similar
product at only $5,000.00 (which includes 50 run time
Licenses)
Any advice would be appreciated.
