Thanks Yaakov,

I finally found some time today to look again for libjack.  I added your new
sourceware.org repository but cygwin's setup.exe tells me that libjack and
libsndfile aren't yet available.  Unfortunately I don't have subversion
installed (at least, not under Windows) so my choice is either to install
subversion or wait until libjack and libsndfile make it to the repository.
I guess the advantage of waiting is that I won't need to sort out
dependencies by trial & error.  But how long do you estimate before the
packages get added?  I'd prefer to wait if it's not going to be too long.

Also (off-topic) does anyone know if libpangocairo is available for loading
via cygwin's setup?  I seem to have pango and cairo - but no pangocairo.

Thanks.

John
