Hello, I am enjoying cygwin quite a good bit.  So I
decided to spend a little time helping out the
website.

I apologize in advance if this is the wrong place for
this, but I was unable to find an email address of a
webmaster for the cygwin.com website.

I have checked each of the links on
http://cygwin.com/ported.html and found many broken
ones.

Following is a list of the broken links with
explanations for each one.  I hope someone who can fix
these will find this useful.

Warm regards,
Martin Marshall
