dash vs. ash?

2009-07-10 Thread Robert Klemme
All, I just notice that there is dash in cygwin 1.7 but there is also ash. What would be the reason to switch from ash to dash? From what I am finding on the web it seems, dash was basically ash code modernized. So it seems when on 1.7 dash would be the preferred one. Any insight? Kind regards
