Perhaps this makes sense as a step in the process but it can't be the end-game if folks really want to make the process easier for everyone. I'm not against any steps necessary if it improves any part of Cygwin but unless the improvement actually folds into the final product (Cygwin itself) as Chris points out, various disjointed and disconnected solutions will likely lead to more confusion and problems in the future. It's worth thinking about for anyone that's taken the first step. This stuff can all be helpful. Let's try to get it all in one place! :-)

I suspect it's because that entails yet another learning curve, and people find it easier just to throw together a web page and put it on their own personal site. -- Ciao, Paul D.
