Dear Jamil,

(I will handle your request, since other MGEN/PARIS developers
are not available during vacations)

Of course, you can distribute the MGEN/PARIS package on your
OpenTech CDs, according to GPL/LGPL. I wish you success with
your distribution project; let us know what's happening.=20

You will find most information with our URL
http://sourceforge.net/projects/mgen,
but I will try to cut&paste the main infos below.
Regarding files, please use the most recent file release from
the URL (current release 1.4 consisting of 3 packages, each with
several files).

Please contact me, if you need further information (or longer text).

Gr=FC=DFe aus Ulm,
  Volker
