I'm probably going to regret this :)
For some time, I've been keeping a private mirror of Cygwin for my own
personal use. Unlike other mirrors, I've been keeping all of the
versions of all packages, along with a revision of setup.ini to go with
it.
Now, call me crazy (and I know you already do :

Actually, I think this is a neat idea. I tried to do something like it
for personal use about 18 months ago -- I wanted a one-time snapshot of
the cygwin-1.3.x baseline just prior to the 1.5.x transition.
But I waited too long (e.g. after packages which required 1.5.x had
"polluted" the server

Hmm... How complete is it? Did you pull all the source packages as

have to bite the bullet.
Oddly enough it comes with a b

I'd still like to archive it. If you can stabalize your ftp host I'll
pull it. Alternatively, I can setup an incoming dir on my machine if
you'd prefer to push from your end.
Well three people have pulled it off in the last 10 hours and it looked like

Well, there is the Cygwin Time Machine:

Unfortunately, it seems that the actual package repository has been
deleted -- at least if I surf to one of the snapshot dirs using firefox:
