I don't believe that currently dash is a package.  Might someone package it?

Personally, I think that a fully documented minimal shell like dash would be
a good replacement for or supplement to ash.  But note that I cannot
volunteer*, am not making a request, and do not expect a follow-up to this
email.  (*I'm not a programmer.)

And thanks, as always, to all the maintainers, developers and other
Contributors to cygwin.  We "freeloaders" appreciate your work.  :-)
