Yeah, it's really too bad. I had so hoped that Dave would still be with us. I now orphaned all gcc packages in cygwin-pkg-maint. If anybody feels bold enough to take up gcc maintainership, please step forward. It would be most appreciated if you would also be willing to take over maintainership of the 64 bit compiler, as soon as we start the official 64 bit distro (later this year). But that's an entirely different beast, so we could also split maintainership, especially given the requirement to provide cross compilers 32->64 and 64->32 bit, too.
