*** XFree86-jdoc (misc. documentation in Japanese)
*** XFree86-prt (X print server)
*** XFree86-ps (postscript documentation)

Changes
=======

1) doc - Removed because it could not be built under Cygwin, ever.  This 
documentation is widely available elsewhere.

2) jdoc - Removed because it could not be built under Cygwin, ever. 
This documentation is widely available elsewhere.

3) prt - Removed becauseit could not be built under Cygwin at the 
moment.  It has also never been reported to work correctly under Cygwin. 
  It may be readded in the future if someone steps forward to maintain 
it and verify that it works correctly.

To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on
the http://cygwin.com/ web page.  This downloads setup.exe to your
system.  Once you've downloaded setup.exe, run it and select "XFree86"
and then click on the appropriate field until the above announced
version number appears if it is not displayed already.

If your mirror doesn't yet have the latest version of this package after
24 hours, you can either continue to wait for that site to be updated or
you can try to find another mirror.

Please send questions or comments to the Cygwin/X mailing list at:
cygwin-xfree@cygwin.com

I would appreciate if you would use this mailing list rather than
emailing me directly.  This includes ideas and comments about the setup
utility or Cygwin/X in general.

If you want to make a point or ask a question the Cygwin/X mailing
list is the appropriate place.
