In six days there has been zero discussion of this. Does that mean that
setup.exe maintainership is up for grabs? If so, I've got things that I
need to start doing with setup.exe, so I would be very interested in
taking responsibility for setup.exe. I have the time for it now as
well, and a project I am working on will really need setup.exe to be
more robust and reliable (such as not blindly and silently unpacking
files to mount points that do not point to physical disk locations).
I'll start working on setup.exe next week and see how the maintainership
question develops.
My own suggestion would be to switch to NSIS to do initial Cygwin
setup, then use something standard like apt or rpm once the initial
setup is done. Cygwin having its own installer is not a very good
use of resources.
