There's only one "server" and that is cygwin.com (aka sourceware.org aka
gcc.gnu.org).  Disk space is limited there.  Of course, the real reason why
we don't do this, though, is "because we're mean".

However, meanness aside, A google search of "cygwin time machine" might
prove instructive.  It would unearth this URL:
http://www.fruitbat.org/Cygwin/index.html#cygwincirca .

This is an independent (not supported by this site) project to archive
all previous releases of cygwin.
