You're going to be repeating that same message for some time, I reckon, 
Corinna!  The following small idea might add some interest, show the 
approaching tipping point, and might even motivate some people to help 
with some 64 bit packages.  Assuming you have the number of packages 
handy, you could replace the above wording with something like this:

The 64 bit Cygwin distribution now has $num_pk_64 packages, compared
with $num_pk_32 in the 32 bit version.


Regards,

luke
