s/a web page/a web page that you control/

If I distribute something linked against Cygwin and then tell people
"here's my main.c, just get all the rest of the sources from cygwin.com"
then I'd be in violation of the GPL if cygwin.com one day goes away for
some reason and I don't notice but continue to distribute my binaries.
