We do not have the machinery in place to do an md5sum of everything in the cygwin release directory and, since that would be a time-consuming task which, IMO, would be of little benefit, I, personally, don't plan on using my currently sparse amount of free time to do anything like this. >>* the package selection screen is SLOoW! > >It used to be a lot slower, as I recall, to select a full install, >something on the order of a several minute wait.
