Cygwin is an all volunteer project: are you volunteering to provide Finnish translations for our infrastructure and packages? Two critical packages that would welcome Finnish localizations are Cygwin Setup setup-x86_64 and Terminal mintty: https://cygwin.com/git/?p=cygwin-apps/setup.git;a=blob;f=res/en/res.rc https://github.com/mintty/mintty/blob/master/lang/messages.pot -- Take care.
