(Unless there been no changes since 20010701.) 20010701 has got a showstopper problem for me but maybe it's just me. And I think it's crazy to release with neither you nor Corinna around! If someone ones to install a test version of Cygwin, they can just as easily install the latest snapshot. (Well, not as easy of course, but I've got accurate instructions for this on the FAQ now.) > As for setup, maybe just release it also as "test" package (no source) - > "setup updating setup" ie not for beginners.... What about providing the new setup.exe from a "test" link that is only advertised on the cygwin list? A lot more people will be able to try it (like me), but they'll know that they're getting a test release of setup. (It should not alert users of setup-2.57 to upgrade!) My opinions, anyway.
