Dear Cygwin community,

As i understand Cygwin will soon no longer support Windows XP resp.
2003. This means that only Windows versions with native symbolic link
functionality will be supported after that. Would it be possible to use
only native symbolic links throughout esp. during setup.exe?

Best regards

Franz
