A new release of gzip, 1.8-1, has been uploaded and will soon reach a
mirror near you; leaving the previous version at 1.7-2.

NEWS:
=====
This is a new upstream release.  For more details on the upstream
changes, see the documentation in /usr/share/doc/gzip/.

DESCRIPTION:
============
GNU Gzip is a popular data compression program originally written by
Jean-loup Gailly for the GNU project. Mark Adler wrote the decompression
part. It was developed as a replacement for compress because of Unisys
and IBM patents covering the LZW algorithm at the time. The superior
compression ratio of gzip is just a bonus.

UPDATE:
=======
To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on
the http://cygwin.com/ web page.  This downloads setup.exe to your
system. Save it and run setup, answer the questions and pick up 'gzip'
in the 'Base' category (it should already be selected).

DOWNLOAD:
=========
Note that downloads from cygwin.com aren't allowed due to bandwidth
limitations.  This means that you will need to find a mirror which has
this update, please choose the one nearest to you:
http://cygwin.com/mirrors.html

QUESTIONS:
==========
If you want to make a point or ask a question the Cygwin mailing list is
the appropriate place.
