Subject: Advice wanted on how to release djgpp shareware renderer

Shareware is considered commercial as far as the djgpp copyrights go.
You have two choices: One, pay the royalty.  The number of "copies"
sold is the number of payments you have received, since not all users
comply with the shareware terms.  Two, keep go32 separate.  If you
distribute go32 as a separate executable with its sources, then you
comply with the GPL half of the copyright.  You could also give them a
complete djgpp distribution.  Note that emu387 and my graphics drivers
can be distributed without restriction, although sending the driver
sources is recommended since not may cards are supported.  Csaba's
drivers may not be redistributable under the same terms, I don't
recall.
