Nope.  The article came first, then the installer.  That kind of grew out of
the article, in a weird sort of way.  I ended up making an analog of what
went into the article for internal business use.  Then decided that maybe
others could use it to.  Put it on the website, and improved as necessary.

So I assume your minimal SSH install package on

    http://www.networksimplicity.com/openssh/

wasn't available then?  For the curious people: Take a look onto Mark's
page.  It allows already the sort of simple OpenSSH installation which uses
Cygwin but without installing a whole Cygwin environment AND the README file
doesn't contain the slightest hint to direct questions to the cygwin mailing
list.

And it's very clear that the intended audience is not full of Cygwin
developers ;-)
