Downloads, docs (*cough* [no really, I coughed]... a couple READMEs), and overlays are available here: http://web.mit.edu/~jalonso/www/cygwin-portage/ I am not in the best of health atm (a temporary matter--I told you I coughed), but I wanted to get this thing rolling where other people can start looking/working at it. As a consequence, most of my language is rushed, resulting in possibly politically dangerous elisions. Therefore, I must rely on others to fill in the gaps in my explanations until I can recuperate. Regards, Jason Alonso p.s. I plan to poke the Cygwin package maintainers with a similar message shortly. -- gentoo-cygwin@gentoo.org mailing list
