It's been a pleasure working with you (since 2008!). Thanks for all your hard work over the years! I will volunteer to adopt the X.org packages (note by this I really mean stuff that comes from X.org, it doesn't include toolkits like Qt or GTK+, or desktop environments like MATE or XFCE) I'll also volunteer to take over maintainership of cygport, if you don't have other plans for that.
