It's your call obviously but do you want to forgo Win 7 support when many of the kind of developers who might be interested in FUSE on Windows are delaying or not bothering to upgrade to Win 8.x or Win 10 for various reasons? Is there an alternative to that particular API that would allow Win 7 support? >>> PS: I am going AWOL this Friday. >> >> If you don't mind my asking, do you mean for the day, for a couple >> weeks, for ever, ??? > > :-D > > Sorry!

I'll be unable to test until I set up a Win 8.x or Win 10 VM at some point. But so far so good. Since this cygfuse glue DLL is a separate package from your FUSE implementation, I guess it'll need a separate ITP. Will you do the initial package upload and then turn maintainership over to me, or would you prefer I own the package from the start? Either way OK with me. I guess whoever will be doing the initial upload should be the ITP submitter as well. Thanks, ..mark
