Then later we could add: > > This idea gets my vote. FYI: I followed that suggestion for the latest inetutils-1.3.2-4 package. The inetutils-1.3.2.README can now be found in /usr/doc/Cygwin Further releases of my various ports will always use that directory as far as it's needed to provide a Cygwin specific README for installation and/or configuration. Hope, other porters will use that in future, too. Only if it's used by most packages, this will become a well-known place for users to look for READMEs. Moreover we would have a new obligatory answer: Q: I don't know how to config that new blurb package? A: RTF blurb.README in /usr/doc/Cygwin! Corinna
