No problem. Meanwhile I'm quite amused *g*

  Move along.  Nothing to see here.

 But I see something here:
http://www-user.tu-chemnitz.de/~goal/?jump=members

 There's an Andreas Gottwald. Coincidence? His brother?

Yes.

@cgf: I can't send mail to you. They are rejected by mail.cgf.cx.
Something like 550: Don't accept mail from spammers (I can't find the
 complete log anymore)

Yes, the @#$%^ site that I am (and soon to be was) using for email
decided to block email from most non-US sites to cut down on spam.
I can't complain since the service was offered as a favor but it sure
is annoying.  Corinna couldn't send me email either.

GGGRRR!!

Dunno if Harold is gone as in shall never darken our door again.  He 
just relinquished primary control over the cygwin-xfree project.  He 
didn't say anything about giving up any of his other packages, nor that 
he would stop reading these lists.

Now, it may be true that he IS going to give up all of his pkgs and 
leave the cygwin community -- but so far, he hasn't said that, or if 
he did I missed it.

Let's not probate the will until we're sure he's kaput.

Re: Harold gone?

2004-07-09 Thread Harold L Hunt II
Chuck hit the nail on the head.  I handed over control of Cygwin/X 
because I am no longer interested in it.  On the other hand, I still use 
Cygwin proper to get things done, so I can't exactly just sit there if 
package foo is not yet available for Cygwin and I need it for 
something I am working on... I'll have to package and maintain it 
myself.  So Chuck was right in guessing that I am not giving up my non-X 
packages, but I am giving up the Cygwin/X project and I don't want to 
work on the X Server anymore, that is all.

Glad to hear that.

My question was, if the pkgconfig file for render is missing in the
released tarball or in the render sources or is just me who is missing
it in /usr/X11R6/lib/pkgconfig?

Harold still seems to be here and I have asked *Alexander* (I called him
Andrew in three or four different email messages yesterday) to
subscribe to this list.

I don't know if he's willing to maintain Harold's old packages or not.
Andrew?  Harold?
