No. Cygwin already distributes other GPLv3+ projects. | Or is it because of some missing human resources to make/test a new | package of this tools ? Bingo. This is a volunteer effort, after all, and volunteers don't have unlimited time. | Or maybe there is some work in progress and a new package will come ? Probably some of this as well. - -- Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
