Hmm. "commercial applications"?
Aw, nevermind. I don't have the strength to go through two painful
IANAL discussions in one week. I'll just assume that this commercial
application is GPL compliant.
So, I have three responses to this:
1) cygwin does not call WNetRestoreConnection.
2) http://www.dependencywalker.com/faq.html
3) Manufacturers of commercial applications are welcome to purchase a support
license from Red Hat. I'm not particularly interested in providing free
support for people who are making money from cygwin.
