I think we could relax the ITP process if you wanted to do some bulk moves but I would hate to have anyone have to support so many packages. Even if I wasn't just concerned about your free time and sanity, I'd be worried what would happen if you left the project.
Precisely why I've hesitated to take on lots more packages within the distro.
However, if you really want to take on the task of doing a bulk move we should talk about it in cygwin-apps.
I understand; we've done this before (Cygwin/X) and Corinna would like me to do another (DocBook, ~25 packages)[1], but beyond that, my current goal is only to remove the aformentioned overlaps[2] between the distro and Ports.
