Please, for your sake, talk to someone with a license to practice law. Personal opinions about what the cygwin license means are *worthless*; even the personal opinions of the non-lawyers at Cygnus. The precise meaning of legal terminology is frequently counter-intuitive; common-sense reasoning about license terms can be dangerous. The only way you'll know for sure whether or not you're okay is by spending some, um, "quality time" with a lawyer.
