Would someone here care to set us up an IRC channel on irc.freenode.net?
I think 'cygwinx' would be an appropriate name.
We could have some development discussions there as well as answering
questions from users. I think it would be a beneficial format.
With that being said, I don't op IRC
Harold,
I hope you are not suggesting that this entire newsgroup/list would move to
IRC.

Of course not, don't be silly.
This is something that we could do in addition to this mailing list.
I like the format of IRC and I think I could answer questions more
quickly there. I also think that some development discussions would be

It seems that David Dawes has made his decision not to let the
Cygwin/XFree86 project commit patches directly to the XFree86.org CVS
tree; he doesn't seem to want to go on record saying this, but he has
written several messages during this discussion about ftp servers, cvs
servers, etc., while

Three other channels that I monitor are on irc.freenode.net... in
particular, the freedesktop.org folks are there and I see us working
closely with them.
I don't use IRC
I have thought about it.
There are really two phases to this:
1) Maintain a fork of the 4.3.0 tree for builds and bug fixes for a few
months.
2) Work in parallel on autotooling the Cygwin/X build so we can build on
the xserver tree on freedesktop.org. This is more of an experimental
setup.
Sorry, Harold. I've been really busy today, and I'm a DLL dunce. I've
been trying to wrap my head around the problem so as to offer something
useful.
I understand the basic issues involved and could see the problem after
the lesstif list responded with that FAQ entry. But, I don't know enough

Looks like you got it.
I was looking at your patch and saw all of the stuff that Nicholas and I
had done (adding -no-undefined). I didn't think there was anything new

Thanks. It was so weird to write
The lesstif-0.93.91-3 package has been updated in the Cygwin
distribution.
Changes:
1) Remember to build shared libraries this time, which required fixups
by Nicholas Wourms.
2) Use the OS/2 VendorShell fixup. This should fix problems with
LessTif apps crashing on startup and generally
Hello once more,
The problem with the XFree85 install is associated with the
XFree-bin-icons package. If I eliminate that from the list of packages,
I get a sufficiently complete installation that I can at least run
Nedit. XWin still produces a background and nothing else.

The issue on Mac OS X is that most shared libraries want to be built
as two-level namespace images. Two-level namespace images have
significant advantages in loading speed, but they require that they
