You don't have to ask developers for patches. You can see the changes either in CVS <http://cygwin.com/cvs.html> or, when a snapshot is released, on the snapshot pages. If you don't see it in CVS, then it is still being worked on and asking people for a work in progress and you don't want a work in progress. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
