Actually a mantainer is *needed* to have new packages, moreover those patches are a bit "unclean".. some times ago I decided to build those packages too, but the list told me that the correct way to do DLLs is to relibtoolize the package, and not creating custom scripts.I've build nearly all the GNOME 1.4 core packages on Cygwin, following the hints and patches gaven out by Steven O'Brien (http://homepage.ntlworld.com/steven.obrien2). Although I haven't time to maintain them, I think they might be useful.
I converted libungif in the "clean way" but I have too few time to convert all of them (though I would like to port at least glib and gtk someday, and maybe finisi freeciv gtk port), but they're not straightforward and I lack the necessary X-Windows know-how.
Volunteers gladly accepted, as usual 0=)
Once good packages are created and a mantainer is found there is no problem in hosting them in cygwin official mirrors, I bet.Could anybody give me a hint?
