Either way is fine.  The FreeBSD version looks good to me as well.  Just
keep in mind that a change of the usage might result in some additional
confused requests on the cygwin ML.

Then... should I?
(I didn't notice any message from Mark, but then again I've been very
busy and the ML has been quite high traffic, so I may have missed it)

What about the fact that that advisory referred to a fact that is
probably so by design (but which I can *NOT* reproduce with actual
Cygwin version, which was updated just a few days AFTER the date of that
advisory message)?
If that is felt as a strong problem, we should probably evaluate using
FreeBSD's whois? Seems to be a bit less easy to use with some addresses,
and has way more options .

Either way suits me ;-)

Thank you very much!  Let's wait until end of the week, if Mark doesn't
show up, feel free to create a new package.

Being a package I frequently use, I will step up if needed, I don't
want it to be an orphan.

I'm trying again with this mail.  If Mark doesn't reply in the next
couple of days... anybody here willing to take over whois maintainership?


TIA,
Corinna
