1. yes, I have Win64 2. n/a 3. yes, I'm already done porting, I'm just waiting for optional dependencies to show up 4. no, I don't want to wait, Cygwin64 is faster, so I want it asap 5. no, one more arch is fine by me 6. no, I want to maintain my packages for Cygwin64 7. no, there's no need for a separate 64-bit maintainer Re 3, I actually needed to patch the src package of that missing optional dependency (aalib) to make it build, and was wondering if *I* should offer it for 64-bit or if I should poke the maintainer (hello Volker, I have a small patch for you), so yes, this discussion is indeed needed...
