Frankly I dont see how you can hold maintainer and not even update once a year.
Between

- coreutils
- bash
- git
- lack of a real package manager

all being way out of date I have already switched to MSYS2 once. The only reason
I came back is they still havent fixed the jacked mount points

    C:/msys64 on /usr
    C:/msys64 on /

while Cygwin correctly does

    C:/cygwin64/bin on /usr/bin
    C:/cygwin64/lib on /usr/lib
    C:/cygwin64 on /
