  Not sure if I qualify as "someone" wrt this issue, but I have an
objection.
  cygwin is for ports of unix tools. I can't see where you have ported
anything.
 Why increase the size of the distribution for no possible benefit?

 Right, that's where they are, there and at numerous mirrors.  Why add them
to cygwin?

 Interesting, but what interests me more is:
 When are Joe's cygwin mods going to be integrated into the Emacs
distribution?
 I've just updated from the emacs cvs archive and I see none of the cygwin
stuff.
 Are the patches being rejected? Are they even being submitted?
