-<qandaentry id="faq.what.what">
-<question><para>What is it?</para></question>
-<answer>
-
-<para>The Cygwin tools are ports of the popular GNU development tools for
-Microsoft Windows.  They run thanks to the Cygwin library which
-provides the POSIX system calls and environment these programs expect.
-</para>
-<para>With these tools installed, it is possible to write Windows console
-or GUI applications that make use of significant parts of the POSIX API.
-As a result, it is possible to easily port many Unix programs without the need
-for extensive changes to the source code.  This includes configuring
-and building most of the available GNU software (including the packages
-included with the Cygwin development tools themselves) as well as lots
-of BSD tools and packages (including OpenSSH).  Even if
-the development tools are of little to no use to you, you may have
-interest in the many standard POSIX utilities provided with the package.
-They can be used from one of the provided Unix shells like bash, tcsh or zsh,
-as well as from the standard Windows command shell if you have to for some
-sad reason.

-<qandaentry id="faq.what.supported">
-<question><para>What versions of Windows are supported?</para></question>
-<answer>
-
-<para>Cygwin can be expected to run on all modern versions of Windows.
-This includes, as of the time of writing this, Windows XP SP3, Windows
-Server 2003, Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, Windows 7, Windows
-Server 2012, Windows 8.  The 32 bit version also runs in the WOW64 32 bit
-environment on released 64 bit versions of Windows
-(XP/2003/Vista/2008/7/2008 R2/8/2012).
-Since Cygwin is a community-supported free software project, patches to
-provide support for other versions would be thoughtfully considered.
-Paid support contracts or enhancements are available through Red Hat.  For 
-information about getting a Red Hat support contract, see 
-<ulink url="http://cygwin.com/licensing.html" />.
-</para>
-<para>Keep in mind that Cygwin can only do as much as the underlying OS
-supports.  Because of this, Cygwin will behave differently, and
-exhibit different limitations, on the various versions of Windows.

-<qandaentry id="faq.what.where">
-<question><para>Where can I get it?</para></question>
-<answer>
-
-<para>The home page for the Cygwin project is <ulink url="http://cygwin.com/">http://cygwin.com/</ulink>.
-There you should find everything you need for Cygwin, including links
-for download and setup, a current list of mirror sites, a User's
-Guide, an API Reference, mailing lists and archives, and additional
-ported software.
-</para>
-<para>You can find documentation for the individual GNU tools typically
-as man pages or info pages as part of the Cygwin net distribution.
-Additionally you can get the latest docs at
-<ulink url="http://www.gnu.org/manual/" />.  (You should read GNU manuals from a
-local mirror.  Check <ulink url="http://www.gnu.org/server/list-mirrors.html" />
-for a list of them.)

-<qandaentry id="faq.what.free">
-<question><para>Is it free software?</para></question>
-<answer>
-
-<para>Yes.  Parts are GNU software (gcc, gas, ld, etc...), parts are covered
-by the standard X11 license, some of it is public domain, some of
-it was written by Red Hat (or the former Cygnus Solutions) and placed under
-the GPL.  None of it is shareware.  You don't have to pay anyone to use it
-but you should be sure to read the copyright section of the FAQ for more
-information on how the GNU General Public License may affect your use of
-these tools.
-</para>
-<para>In particular, if you intend to port a proprietary (non-GPL'd)
-application using Cygwin, you will need the proprietary-use license 
-for the Cygwin library.  This is available for purchase from Red Hat;
-please visit <ulink url="http://cygwin.com/licensing.html" /> for more
-information.  All other questions should be sent to the public project
-mailing list cygwin@cygwin.com.
-</para>
-<para>Note that when we say "free" we mean freedom, not price.  The goal of
-such freedom is that the people who use a given piece of software
-should be able to change it to fit their needs, learn from it, share
-it with their friends, etc.  The Cygwin license allows you those
-freedoms, so it is free software.

-<qandaentry id="faq.what.version">
-<question><para>What version of Cygwin <emphasis>is</emphasis> this, anyway?</para></question>
-<answer>
-
-<para>To find the version of the Cygwin DLL installed, you can use
-<filename>uname</filename> as on Linux or <filename>cygcheck</filename>. Refer to each command's
-<literal>--help</literal> output and the <ulink url='http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/'>Cygwin User's Guide</ulink> for more information.
-</para>
-<para>If you are looking for the version number for the whole Cygwin
-release, there is none. Each package in the Cygwin release has its own
-version.  The packages in Cygwin are continually improving, thanks to
-the efforts of net volunteers who maintain the Cygwin binary ports.
-Each package has its own version numbers and its own release process.
-</para>
-<para>So, how do you get the most up-to-date version of Cygwin?  Easy.  Just
-download the Cygwin Setup program by following the instructions
-<ulink url='http://cygwin.com/install.html'>here</ulink>.  The setup program will handle the task
-of updating the packages on your system to the latest version. For
-more information about using Cygwin's <filename>setup.exe</filename>, see 
-<ulink url='http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/setup-net.html'>Setting Up Cygwin</ulink>
-in the Cygwin User's Guide.

-
-<para><emphasis role='bold'>(Please note that if you have cygwin-specific
-questions, all of these people will appreciate it if you use the cygwin
-mailing lists rather than sending personal email.)</emphasis>
-</para>
-<para>
-Christopher Faylor (cgf) is one of the project leads. Chris works for
-Netapp but all of his Cygwin activities occur on his own time. He is
-most notably responsible for the support of signal handling and
-fork/exec in Cygwin. He also administers the site which hosts the
-Cygwin project.
-</para>
-<para>
-Corinna Vinschen (corinna) is the other project lead. Corinna is a
-senior Red Hat engineer. Corinna is responsible for such important
-subsystems as security and networking and has recently added support to
-Cygwin for wide characters, increased path length, IPv6, advisory
-file locking and more.
-</para>
-<para>
-Yaakov Selkowitz is the Cygwin/X coordinator. Jon Turney serves on the
-Cygwin/X team as a developer.
-</para>
-<para>
-The Cygwin setup project is currently maintained by a group of people, most notably, Brian Dessent (brian) and Dave Korn (dave.korn).
-</para>
-<para>Please note that all of us working on Cygwin try to
-be as responsive as possible and deal with patches and questions as we
-get them, but realistically we don't have time to answer all of the
-email that is sent to the main mailing list.  Making Net releases of the
-Win32 tools and helping people on the Net out is not our primary job
-function, so some email will have to go unanswered.
-</para>
-<para>Many thanks to everyone using the tools for their many contributions in
-the form of advice, bug reports, and code fixes.  Keep them coming!
