I really don't know much about administering CVS... and I kinda don't
have time to learn right now. However, if someone else is willing to
set it up, I would be more than happy to start using it. I would want
the xoncygwin CVS default branch updated to 4.3.0 and I would want the
latest test release checked into hw/xwin... then I would be good to go.
Any volunteers?
As for the XFree86 CVS committ... I have been waiting to do a little
reorganization before sending you a resynch patch. It is going to be
big, as in over 100 KiB.

No. Remember that I tried to build the 4.2.0 binaries and had some
missing files that I couldn't explain. You ended up building the
binaries for me and didn't have any troubles.

I was going to ask you to, but, well, I didn't want to ask you to :) I
could certainly adapt the packaging script if you built the 4.3.0
binaries. Beware... I haven't tried to build the 4.3.0 branch on
Cygwin, nor have I tried to cross compile it. I have no idea if it
still works :(
