This list has recovered a bit but is still very sparse.

It is probably just a coincidence, but my usual mirror,
<ftp://mirror.mcs.anl.gov/pub/cygwin/>, has disappeared, not just from
<http://cygwin.com/mirrors.html>, but when accessed directly with Firefox,
not setup.  Usually it is very reliable.  I doubt that there's anything
that you can do, but I wonder if anl.gov cannot find something that it is
looking for at the cygwin/sourceware end and that that has contributed to
this problem at anl.gov and at least some of the other mirrors.

Best wishes,

- Barry
