For instance the perl and python subdirs... I've now created a release-2 area. I used a somewhat intermediary approach. The dirs are real dirs, the tar.bz2 files are symlinks to the release area, the setup.hint and md5.sum files are copies. The cygwin subdir only contains 1.7.0-1 packages. Chris, could you please set up another upset which creates the corresponding setup-2.{bz2,ini} files? Brian, could you please prepare a temporary setup-1.7.exe which only downloads from the release-2 area?
