This is one of the reasons I think that it might be better to: 1) Maintainers only approve the setup.hint file. 2) Upload the new package as test or new and let the Cygwin community as a whole have a say in the package configuration. a) Use cygwin.com for voting for the package with comments area and the form is mailed to [EMAIL PROTECTED] b) The package maintainer has two weeks to work the issues discussed on the [EMAIL PROTECTED] page. c) If the issues aren't fixed the package is pulled. 3) Once x count votes of approval the setup.hint can be adjusted to remove the test/new classification. a) base x on some percentage of the cygwin community population count. b) or base x on some flat number.
