Typically there is a delay between when WinAVR is released, with the latest 
patches to nominally recently released versions of the tools, and when the 
Linux distros pick them up and offer a package for the end user. What I would 
like to do is to close this delay gap, and eventually offer identical toolchain 
releases on multiple platforms (e.g. Windows, Mac, and 2 popular Linux distros) 
at the same time, or nearly the same time. "Identical" in this case means 
having a single package that includes the same tools, at the same versions, 
with the same patch sets. Well, that's the plan at least. :-)
