Contribution Package Proposal: JASSPA's MicroEmacs
Hi, I would like to contribute JASSPA's MicroEmacs to the Cygwin package list, a Emacs Text Editor. This is currently being distributed from http://www.jasspa.com. We are in the process of putting together the next release and have now resolved most of the problems in porting to the Cygwin environment (site contents are not current). Because we are encumbered with a license that was inherited from the original uEmacs then I though I had better check whether our license violates your distribution mechanism. We are (unfortunately) not under GPL, but all of the source is freely available. The license we currently run with is attached below. So before I take this any further (i.e. put together a complete package) then I need some sort of approval that we have a potentially valid submission. Also attached is the setup.hint - as per Web instructions. Thanks Jon. --- setup.hint # Set up for JASSPA's MicroEmacs @microemacs sdesc: JASSPA distribution of MicroEmacs text editor ldesc: Small footprint EMACS text editor, based on Danial Lawrences' uEmacs 3.8.

rebase
I would like to contribute my rebase utility. Should it be a stand-alone package? Be added to another package (i.e., cygutils -- sorry to suggest this Chuck...)? Or, be added to winsup/utils? Thanks, Jason

Re: Contribution Package Proposal: JASSPA's MicroEmacs
I believe the commercial restrictions are problematic. If we're going to include an emacs, I'd prefer one that is completely free (speech) like FSF Emacs or XEmacs. However, with the soon-to-be-released features in setup.exe, there's no reason why Jon can't provide a cygwin-friendly download site (complete with his own setup.ini) -- folks could then explicitly add his download site to their own list, and the new setup will present a merged view of available packages. That is, folks who want JASSPA's MicroEmacs could get it via setup.exe, but it doesn't need to be distributed via the cygwin mirror system. --Chuck Jon Green wrote: Hi, I would like to contribute JASSPA's MicroEmacs to the Cygwin package list, a Emacs Text Editor.

Re: Restructuring gettext
Okay, I've uploaded and announced the new gettext packages: gettext-0.10.40-1 libintl1-0.10.40-1 libintl-0.10.38-3 I also updated the setup.hint files on the server for the following packages: wget mutt nano vim sharutils The maintainers of those packages should make a note of this; the next time they rebuild, they will depend on libintl1 instead of libintl. For now, I changed each setup.hint from depending on gettext to libintl. --Chuck

I am going to release nano 1.0.7 after christmas (on holidays right now or I would release it tommorow) which fixes a few things including locale being installed in the wrong directory - it also compiles completely without modification straight from the box - got my lil problems fixed at the source :) anyway ... until 1.1.5 or so (which should be my next release after 1.0.7 I think) and both versions are recompiled to depend on libintl1 I assume my setup.hint will have to depend on Both libintl and libintl1 correct? or should I do something else?

Re: Restructuring gettext
I'd recommend specifying both, for users who click 'prev'. If you don't list a prev version (implicitly or explicitly) then you don't need both. Rob
