Cygwin's TeX Live collections have been updated to the latest upstream release 
of TeX Live 2016.  The latter was frozen as of 2017-04-12 in preparation for the 
pretest of TeX Live 2017.

TeX Live provides a comprehensive, cross-platform TeX system.  It includes all 
the major TeX-related programs, macro packages, and fonts that are free 
software, including support for many languages around the world.  For more 
information, see

   http://www.tug.org/texlive/

Upstream TeX Live provides thousands of "packages", grouped into "collections". 
There is a Cygwin package for each upstream collection; there are also Cygwin 
packages containing documentation for some of the collections.

The mathscience collection is new; it is a combination of the old mathextra and 
science collections.

The bibtexextra collection is marked as a test release because it includes 
biblatex-3.7, which is designed to work with biber-2.7.  In order to use it, you 
will have to install the test release of perl-5.24 and then build biber-2.7 
yourself.  I can provide instructions if anyone wants to do this.

Recommendations
===============
Most people do not need the full TeX Live installation, which is huge and can 
take a long time to install.  If you're not sure what you need, here are some 
possible ways to start:

Minimal: Install texlive and its dependencies.  This provides plain TeX but not 
LaTeX.

Small: Install texlive-collection-latex and its dependencies.  This is a minimal 
installation with LaTeX.

Standard: Install texlive-collection-latexrecommended and its dependencies. 
This provides the most commonly used non-graphics LaTeX packages.  Install 
texlive-collection-pictures if you want the standard graphics packages too.

If you want or need more, consider installing some of the following:

* texlive-collection-binextra
* texlive-collection-context
* texlive-collection-fontsrecommended
* texlive-collection-fontutils
* texlive-collection-genericrecommended
* texlive-collection-luatex
* texlive-collection-mathscience
* texlive-collection-metapost
* texlive-collection-plainextra
* texlive-collection-xetex

Fontconfig
==========
There is a script /usr/bin/texlive-enable-fontconfig that you can run if you 
want the fonts distributed with TeX Live to be available to applications that 
rely on fontconfig.  See /usr/share/doc/texlive/README.Cygwin for more details. 
(The script can take a few minutes to run, so be patient.)

tlmgr
=====
texlive-collection-basic includes a restricted version of the tlmgr (TeX Live 
Manager) utility.  See /usr/share/doc/texlive-collection-basic/README.Cygwin for 
more details.
