The new directory has been set up. release-2 is a union file system with
the standard cygwin release as a read-only component of the directory. I
removed the _obsolete directory, and should have removed everything which
was in the obsolete Category. I've indiscriminately purged any package which
sorted lexically less (using the upset version sort algorithm) than what
seemed to be the most recent package.
Since most of what I did was automated, I probably ended up deleting too
much. Please take a look at the package directories that you maintain
and verify that the release-2 directory contains something that makes
sense.
