Michael,
Please fill out the form at:

http://sources.redhat.com/cgi-bin/pdw/ps_form.cgi

The project is cygwin, the approver is cgf AT redhat DOT com.
The email address is the address for any email sent to cygwin.com
or sources.redhat.com.

The ssh identity.pub file should be a v1 not a v2 key.

Once this is done, I will provide you with access to the cygwin web
pages.

Thanks,
cgf
