The following people have contributed to the run-time environment; I have
general comments about licensing but the author's original documentation
takes precedence over any comments made here.  Programs not mentioned
below are part the compiler package which is explicitly GPL'd

anakin@pobox.com and jules@earthcorp.com        - NASM assembler
                    - this version of NASM follows the author's original
                    - copyright, which basically says you can freely use
                    - and redistribute for non-commercial use.  Using the
                    - sofware in a commercial product must be cleared by
                    - the authors.
David Troendle      - VAL linker
                    - original linker was public domain; my modifications
                    - for this package are GPL'd
Kirill Joss         - CL386 program
                    - public domain
Kirill Joss         - MK386 program
                    - public domain
Kirill Joss         - Watcom support
                    - public domain
Kirill Joss         - DPMI stub programs for various DPMI packages
                    - public domain
TRAN (thomas pytel) - PMODE307 and PMODE/W for DPMI support
                    - copyright TRAN, free for any use
Charles Scheffold   - PMODE/W for DPMI support
                    - free for non-commercial use, must purchase license if
                    - incorporated in commercial program.  
Matthew Brandt	    - portions of the C compiler
                    - holds copyright, not sure of any restrictions
                    - I've made enough
                    - substantial changes that the code only bears slight
                    - resemlbance to the original , so it is now GPL'd
Dr Dobbs Journal    - grep program
                    - Allen Holub holds copyright on this code
Scott Christley	    - WIN32 header files
                    - These are GPL'd rather than LGPL'd.  It is kind of
                    - grey as to whether you can use them to generate
                    - commerical programs, some are hardline that they
                    - can't wheras others insist that since it is an
                    - interface rather than a program it isn't covered.
Lance Taylor        - portions of the resource compiler (GPL'd)
George J. Carette   - turning GNU regex into a win32 DLL (GPL'd)
Narech Koumar       - dos32a run-time files (see dos32a.lic)
(supernar)
David Lindauer      - remaining code & run time libraries
                    - I've GPL'd tools I've written.  The libraries use
                    - an LGPL so it is possible to create proprietary
                    - programs which incorporate them.
