GPL violation ?


Checkpoint appear to be distributing cygwin1.dll (as well as gzip and
gtar) without any obvious sources available. if fact of the 3 GPL utils
its the only that doesnt have its own copying notice (they do at least
provide a copy of the GPL.)
I havent contacted them about this as i could be in error and havent at
the moment got time for an exaustive search of their site, but i thought
i'd best let the list know.
offending archive at
http://www.checkpoint.com/techsupport/downloads/bin/firewall1/ng/fp3/
verify/upgrade_checker_B53066_1_win32.tgz
(excuse the wrapped URL)
although it could be in others (havent checked.)
