Could Christopher and/or Corinna please weigh in on this?  There seem to be
a lot of ideas and energy behind this project, but I don't think the
discussion can go much further until we hear from them.

Is either of you interested in having a redesign of cygwin.com?  What would
be your criteria for an acceptable redesign?

Thanks, Andrew.
