I'm about to release cygwin 1.5.0. We've bumped the version to 1.5.0 because of some major changes in functionality - cygwin now uses 64 bit file I/O by default.
This was a substantial effort on the part of Corinna Vinschen who deserves major kudos for her work (which was entirely volunteered). Corinna deserves five gold stars for this work. It *really* was not an easy task.
Anyway, expect a testing version of 1.5.0 soon. Just to whet your appetite a little, [...]
You definitely did wet my appetite a lot. And I guess it is high time to
say the big "thank you" I owe to the contributors to cygwin who made it invaluable to me. Thanks to all of you for your efforts and work.
So, barring any problems, expect a test (aka Exp) version of the cygwin DLL soon.
Since you are going to release a test version, I guess this test version is intended, well, for testing. So, if I am told what especially needs testing, maybe I can do a thing or two.
Regards mks
