Personally, I prefer to just think of this project as a free software project. It's always possible to find people who are willing to do programming for $$$ (and I am definitely not volunteering for this) so that should be a given. Also, Red Hat has their own supported distribution so I wouldn't assume that they would be thrilled to make changes in the cygwin net disro to accommodate someone else's attempts to install packages. cgf -- 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/
