Change of Singular maintainer

Change of Singular maintainer

[Oliver Wienand [Math.]]

The new maintainer of the Singular packages will be Frank 
Seelisch.
The next Singular release should be ready in January and 
then be
contributed by him. I am not sure if I should post an 
email address.
However, he has subscribed to cygwin and cygwin-apps ML. 
Therefore it
should be rather easy to contact him if necessary.

Since this is, for the time being, my last "official" 
message let me
take the opportunity to thank the Cygwin project. I 
learned a lot from
just reading the lists and maintaining the package. And 
even better, a
lot of the stuff I learned eased my work on many 
opportunities.

Hi Frank, welcome on board.  Did you already contemplate the idea
to create a new package for Cygwin 1.7?  Or is it not necessary
for some reason?

Hi Corinna,

thanks for the welcome!

Oliver and I are going to take a look at our packaging process and 
Cygwin 1.7 related stuff end of this week. Up to now, it seems your 
changes do not have too much of a side-effect on our Singular packages...

Therefore, as soon as our new release is ready, it should be includable 
in any new Cygwin version. But, as Oliver wrote, this will probably not 
be before January.
I will keep you informed...

Best regards,
Frank

Please note that there has been a major upgrade to Cygwin/X, which
affects your startxserver.bat and the "Start X Server" shortcut in
singular-icons.  I suggest you remove these and depend on xinit instead,
which contains the current version of the X startup scripts.

Corinna,

yes, I did. Thanks for the hint.

We're still in prep for packaging Singular 3-1-0...
To be honest; I'm new to X Server related stuff, so still a bit 
clueless. I will contact Oliver (Wienand), in order to get this done asap.

Frank

Re: Change of Singular maintainer

Ok, we solely depend on startxwin.bat now, which I found in the 1.7 
Cygwin download. (I need to further test everything when we package 
Singular early next year...)

Wish you a Merry Xmas and a Happy New Year!

So long,
Frank
