Hello,
I'm interested in becoming a package maintainer for passwdqc:
https://www.openwall.com/passwdqc/
It is a password/passphrase strength checking and policy enforcement
toolset, including command-line programs (pwqcheck, pwqfilter, and
pwqgen), and a library (libpasswdqc). Its primary author, Solar
Designer, is a renowned authority on password security, having also
created the famous John the Ripper password cracking tool and multiple
widely used password hashing implementations. The PAM support is not
involved in this Cygwin package but I personally find the utilities
quite useful in their own right and have been using them under Cygwin
for some time.
This would be a new package for Cygwin but is already
packaged in other distributions:
https://packages.fedoraproject.org/pkgs/passwdqc/passwdqc/
https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=passwdqc
https://software.opensuse.org/package/passwdqc
https://pkgs.org/download/passwdqc
https://formulae.brew.sh/formula/passwdqc
It is released under essentially the ISC license.
The current release can be downloaded from:
https://www.openwall.com/passwdqc/passwdqc-2.0.2.tar.gz
https://www.openwall.com/passwdqc/passwdqc-2.0.2.tar.gz.sign (PGP signature)
It can be compiled on Cygwin with only minor patches to the Makefile.
.hint and .cygport files are attached and can also be found here along
with built packages:
https://github.com/crd477/passwdqc-cygport
Now that I have access, I can also put these into the cygwin git
repository, I just wasn't sure if it was acceptable to do so before
sending the ITP message.
Thanks, and take care...

CATEGORY="Security"
SUMMARY="password/passphrase strength checking and enforcement toolset"
DESCRIPTION="passwdqc is a password/passphrase strength checking and policy
enforcement toolset, including command-line programs (pwqcheck, pwqfilter,
and pwqgen), and a library (libpasswdqc).
pwqcheck and pwqgen are standalone password/passphrase strength checking
and random passphrase generator programs, respectively, which are usable
from scripts. The pwqfilter program searches, creates, or updates binary
passphrase filter files, which can also be used with pwqcheck.
libpasswdqc is the underlying library, which can also be used from
third-party programs."
