Thanks, Yaakov; another few question not (yet) in the FAQ:

- After sending an (updated) SSH key, how long would I have to wait
until access works? (The howto says it's handled automatically but it
doesn't work after 15 min).


This is actually what it says:


Requests are handled manually and are acknowledged publicly in response
to email to the cygwin-apps mailing list.


When you see that ack, then you may upload.
Ah, I was confused by the sentence two paragraphs above "It is read by a 
program..." so I thought it was fully automatic, sorry. So I'll be 
patient...

Thanks, Thomas

- Why is the identical src package expected to appear twice in different
directories?


Because upset (the script that generates setup.ini) looks at x86 and 
x86_64 as separate repositories.

- How could access from different machines be set up? (which would 
typically generate unique keys...)


- Why is the identical src package expected to appear twice in different 
directories? (I hope the hard link option of sftp is supported - once it 
works - so at least upload can be shortcut but still..)


Thanks

A few questions not (yet) in the FAQ:
- The page does not mention cygport files, what about them?


They are already part of the -src package when you build with cygport; 
they have never been uploaded separately.



- Is there/Should there be an option to transfer files from an external
upload location (to save upload bandwidth)?


Why would that be necessary?


- Is bz2 still accepted?


cygport generated .tar.xz packages now, so that should be moot.


- Is the new system mandatory?


This is the system we expect package maintainers to use now.
