Well, not "error" but still "undecided". Chris and I were talking
about this, and my thoughts were that the version number of cygwin
itself (the dll) would be 1.1.0 (i.e. there would be a
cygwin/cygwin-1.1.0.tar.gz file) but the actual distribution would be
something like <ftp>/current (i.e. <ftp>/current/cygwin/*.tar.gz)
But, we're open for suggestions.
