Argh.

That's the timezone I'm in. I'll see what's going on later tonight :) .

My mistake. I thought your FUSE implementation had to be compiled for Cygwin,
in order to make use of the cygfuse glue logic. But instead you have a native
Windows FUSE implementation? Won't you have ABI (not API) problems connecting
those two pieces, depending on how the FUSE guts are implemented? Apologies if
you've sorted that all out; don't want to hold you up talking about solved aspects.
I agree with how you want to adjust license and transfer ownership. I don't
have a presence on GitHub but I should be able to grab cygfuse anyway.
Thanks much,
