Yes, tetex is not maintained anymore. But the cygwin people have not stopped maintaining their tetex packages, have they? > Are there any plans to adopt the texlive package for cygwin?

Yes please. For me too. But it took a while on Gentoo Linux to make texlive available. I think, it's not that easy and will take a lot of time. So we'll have to wait. For the time being, tetex is quite well. I didn't noticed any advantage of texlive after i switched. (Some more packages/fonts are included - the rest is pretty the same - maybe some bugs are fixed?)
