OK. Let's use [EMAIL PROTECTED] for the mean time if there is
any discussion
needed. Once it's going we can discuss elsewhere. It would be really
nice to have this hosted
at sources.redhat.com but actually at the moment we don't need that, we
just need to start
developing. But that can all be

Yes, I've been thinking this and then we can include it back into

I like win2x. (or maybe win4x)

Please don't use GDI in the name. I ask this because I don't want there

Consider instead something like the following:

Can we move this discussion to another mailing list? and Get back to the
business of cygwin-xfree, here.
TIA

Yes, will do as soon as the new project is set up. So it'll hopefully be
only a few more emails.

A new SF project yes, but this is very much a Cygwin/XFree related

I say move the discussion elsewhere. I have put up with it for now, but
it really needs to go so we can get back on topic here.
Of course, with the level of continuous contributions flowing from other
members of the Cygwin/XFree86 project, I can't hold out much hope for
this new project.
Any such development would need to occur in a branch that could
eventually be merged back in if it proves stable, useful, well
modularized, and actively maintained. If not, I'll just forget that
