Marco,

I'm not trying to hijack the thread, Please read Brian's October 5, 2012 
message. Half way through he raises the corrupt perl man pages issue - 
only it occured at the GA Tech site.

In my original message I requested that it be redirected or that someone 
tell me the proper procedure.

I wasn't sure it there may have been a problem that went beyond VA 
Tech's site.

Also, I checked the Cygwin "Reporting Problems" web site and found no 
mention about contacting mirror site maintainers. Rather the 
instructions state "If you can't determine if you've discovered a bug . 
. . send a detailed description . . . to the appropriate mailoing list."

Perhaps the "Reporting Problems" needs to be more clear on this.

Charlie
