For the record, I know I saw something somewhere within the last month or two about binutils adding support for win64, which is a major part of this project. If you aren't the person that made the announcement I am thinking of, you might want to be careful about not duplicating work that someone else is already doing. (I'd have to think that whoever is working on it already would appreciate help, however.) Personally, I don't think it's off-topic; 64-bit Cygwin (which is primarily a matter of adding win64 support to binutils, gcc and gdb, at least as far as those being the biggest hurdles) is a topic that's bounced around before, and as you say, I think a number of people here would be interested in news of the progress of such a project. -- Matthew KATE: Awesome Text Editor -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
