Thank you, Corinna.  I'll send out the announcements.

I've uploaded both packages.  Packaging looks ok to me and both are
part of some Linux distro.

I've uploaded new packages that reflect the reduced-size source
package.  The source package now weighs in at a much more reasonable
280K.

It's not necessary to put that much work into it, but the "quick cut"
would be nice.

  The mtd source package is currently 1.3 MB compressed.  A
quick cut that removes obviously unused/unreferenced top-level
directories trims that down to about 350 K.  I could probably
trim it back to around 250 K by eliminating some unused sub-
directories (ecos support, test harnesses, etc.)

What's "rather large" in MB?

ITP: cramfs-1.1, mtd-20050419

2005-04-25 Thread Robb, Sam
Earlier, Marion Deveaud proposed adding cramfs and jffs2 packages
to cygwin.  He had done some initial work on porting, but was
unable to commit to maintaining the packages if they were accepted
as part of the cygwin net distribution.

As I'm already maintaining a couple of packages, Marion was kind
enough to allow me to work with him on putting together these
two packages for submission.

The end results are a couple of packages that are a joint effort
between Marion and myself, which I've committed to maintaining if
they're accepted as part of the cygwin net release.

One concern: the mtd source package is rather large, as it is a
snapshot of the whole mtd source tree.  If this is a concern, I
can work on trimming down the sources to just the essentials
needed to build the utilities.
