Обсуждение: Licensing For PostgreSql + CygIPC + Cygwin
Hi
I want to distribute my application with postgressql and cygwin. As far as i know by reading the licensing information and the mailing list archieves that postgresql comes under BSD licensing which states that you can the distribute the software with the copyright notice . Concerning the cygwin it conatains many tools which probably come under GNU GPL which states that u must make your source code public. Now since we dont directly communicate with the CYGWIN do we need to make the source code public ? , Secondly i did'nt found enough info about cygipc , which they say its deprecated.
Finally is it a good choice to use postgresql with cygwin concerning the Performance .
Ajay.
