Hi Jari

Can you fix your cygbuild script to only include unversioned package
README's and documentation directories. This seems to be the consensus
right now (see also your announcement above). For example your wcd
package includes the following:
    
/usr/share/doc/                                                                                                                                                                                 
/usr/share/doc/Cygwin/                                                                                                                                                                          
/usr/share/doc/Cygwin/wcd-5.2.2.README
