I could not agree more, Max. Misunderstandings are indeed unfortunate. Misrepresentations are something else entirely. FWIW, I fully support your stance that your unilaterally-imposed "disqualification" was unwarranted. At the same time, it's not difficult to understand Hans' consternation and reaction to the situation. Doxygen is a very useful package, and it would be sad for the "Cygwin immune system" to reject its inclusion on the basis that somebody did too much work. -- Gary R. Van Sickle
