Attached is a patch which moves the old method one and two to an archive
page, and continues the boffo packaging example into the section for the
cygport method.
Other stuff left to do:
- Change to link to the new upload process page
- Correct paths on the package server from release/ to <arch>/release
- Change the examples to use .xz compression
Jon, I think this is a good start. I suggest that you go ahead and move
this out, so we can continue improving the page from there. Andrew
Thanks. I think I applied this a few days ago.
BTW, if you want to write patches for the cygwin website (hint hint), I
think the runes to check out a local copy of it are:
"cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@sourceware.org:/cvs/cygwin co htdocs"
