Hi Yasushiro, usually you ask the maintainer on this list and wait for the feedback. However if you are interested to become the single maintainer or the co-maintainer of any package, you can do so on the cygwin-apps mailing list. Which packages are you interested in ? We have plenty of them and new maintainers are always welcome: https://cygwin.com/cygwin-pkg-maint suggested reading https://cygwin.com/packaging-contributors-guide.html Regards Marco
