If you want to take over ctags and test universal ctags for Cygwin, feel free if Warren agrees. I'll change over maintainership then. Warren, does that sound good to you? Doug, I hope you don't feel overlooked. Expat is still yours if Warren has no problems with that. > BTW.

I doubt he wants to become Cygwin package maintainer, though :) Thanks, Corinna --=20 Corinna Vinschen Please, send mails regarding Cygwin to Cygwin Maintainer cygwin AT cygwin DOT com Red Hat --7nsmwwx46o7wlrht Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-length: 819 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJXrdXRAAoJEPU2Bp2uRE+gBgYP/26xb2voyjpKrlq9Ys6NTNEy uBpzPQmTCdIZQ+bC3tZJ2+2MSsd+nVKYvV3Ql4WuR85zGR8tTQEIk1C8uhzHh7yu ZKsoTcSEuIYJ2b369zNhup8RMIuigf5dHvkpsYNdZME4mzLtvZBWs2EfyJ8azUw9 LB+lTBguUixK1XAev9ZgTs10nfz9YO5nO+yEwx24LHJLUF6WbyovQ4dpB1yfiPIm oALrL7Hz9BADmxv1EM+/JdBZ7dVHNr5mLJJ+xdG+o15jergb521Zp1aD4S0auuES IFWF7ngdsT2x6Qu/l6sQy9USNVZSdN8lzeGmaRgbWpyCBN+wejKsp8QAoGBqf/Kp woclvGgB09psfhBlU1TI7tsNmB8dh0j4t7M6v5C64iLxL1loGGn+vZeDgT+wqwlP VA7/tNd9GZmJwiU3OltRyNlnNuBZv+dU/kPiSsSW21KCwIGE0++CwsK/UCbu0RZn X5t8Kxi5nmcuIMs6s4TQUilerc9HYU7mSKa39zKRRX1V/u7qqrymr1Sk5qWTDKGJ iaXdVyL3SUzI+kX0u5YBlkYwbQdjgaPbld1guYnT8CdBwOUe/qld9lN/+G8tchi5 mWh6/WvPBf5dQOOqSEMkm+6JkXLET7MV8h0i26kOLhKniz+q1MDfcUlbFpd/4PA2 DHrAvs6o/t/3yh5reV0V =Vu0g -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --7nsmwwx46o7wlrht--
