Hello Cygwin package maintainers,
To that end, in the best interest of the community, please consider my packages up for adoption. I don't expect that any one person will take all of them; some are obsolete and due for removal anyway, some should be picked up as soon as possible, and others might just end up bitrotting if nobody is interested in them. However, in whatever there is interest (or need), hopefully what is there now will serve as a strong foundation to on which to continue to build.
I am considering to take over python, and I am building 2.7.17 and 3.8.2 to see how complicate it is. One question on the cygport # see PEP 394 dosym python${slot}.exe /usr/bin/python dosym python${slot}.exe /usr/bin/python2 do you see any problem to use alternatives for the same scope ? Regards Marco
