Have some perspective.
I am encouraging and offering the poster a way to solve their problem, after providing some possible reasons for dropping support from some ECs. Rebuilding a Cygwin package from source using cygport is a relatively easy task. I am not presuming, but assuming some amount of technical expertise, based on a poster asking about openssl configuration and which ECs they want to support. If they need more help they can ask in a follow up. Please refrain from your own inappropriate assumptions and meta-commentary based on that, as this is not a social media platform. Why would you assume the poster is a novice? Before commenting, please try yourself to consider multiple perspectives on posts and replies?
