Maj. Andrews,

Your symptom (retrieving an outdated Setup.exe via the link on the Cygwin 
home page) is indicative of a cache between you and the Cygwin server that 
is not properly detecting the presence of a new file at the ultimate URL.

The current version is 2.249.2.3, and that's definitely what's present at 
<http://www.cygwin.com/setup.exe>.

I interpret that absence of any Setup.exe snapshots at 
<http://www.cygwin.com/setup-snapshots> to imply that Setup.exe is not at 
the moment under active development and hence not requiring interested or 
motivated users to try experimental versions.
