+
+Why pthreads-win32 did not use the GNU General Public License
+-------------------------------------------------------------
+
+ The goal of the pthreads-win32 project has been to
+ provide a quality and complete implementation of the POSIX
+ threads API for Microsoft Windows within the limits imposed
+ by virtue of it being a stand-alone library and not
+ linked directly to other POSIX compliant libraries. For
+ example, some functions and features, such as those based
+ on POSIX signals, are missing.
+
+ Pthreads-win32 is a library, available in several different
+ versions depending on supported compilers, and may be used
+ as a dynamically linked module or a statically linked set of
+ binary modules. It is not an application on it's own.
+
+ It was fully intended that pthreads-win32 be usable with
+ commercial software not covered by either the GPL or the LGPL
+ licenses. Pthreads-win32 has many contributors to it's
+ code base, many of whom have done so because they have
+ used the library in commercial or proprietry software
+ projects.
+
+ Releasing pthreads-win32 under the LGPL ensures that the
+ library can be used widely, while at the same time ensures
+ that bug fixes and improvements to the pthreads-win32 code
+ itself is returned to benefit all current and future users
+ of the library.
+
+ Although pthreads-win32 makes it possible for applications
+ that use POSIX threads to be ported to Win32 platforms, the
+ broader goal of the project is to encourage the use of open
+ standards, and in particular, to make it just a little easier
+ for developers writing Win32 applications to consider
+ widening the potential market for their products.
