Yes, that would be a great contribution. I think it should live at CPAN as a separate category similar to the Win32:: hierarchy named Cygwin:: So if you have a version of one or another Module that works, just put it up to CPAN so everyone can fetch it. I would like to test it with bleadperl because perl-5.6 is stable and hopefully soon we'll have a new perl, perl-5.8;) Gerrit -- =^..^= -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
