About Cygnus Solutions
**********************

   Cygnus Solutions (formerly named Cygnus Support) was founded in
1989 to provide commercial support for free software.  Cygnus supplies
products and services that benefit advanced development groups by
allowing them to use state-of-the-art tools without having to maintain
them.  With Cygnus Solutions, sites that once were forced to do their
own tool support can recover that valuable staff time.  Former users
of proprietary software now may choose supported free software,
combining the advantages of both worlds.

   Free software is faster, more powerful, and more portable than its
proprietary counterparts.  It evolves faster because users who want to
make improvements are free to do so.  Cygnus tracks these improvements
and integrates them into tested, stable versions ready for commercial
use, then backs this software with comprehensive support.

   With Cygnus Solutions as your partner, you will have the software
and the support you need to meet your business objectives.  Cygnus is
intimately familiar with this software from extensive experience
using, debugging, and implementing it.  You get direct access to the
most qualified support people: the authors of the software.

   Because all our improvements are also free software, you can
distribute them widely within your organization, or to your customers,
without extra cost.
