Great! What is the project name? I see there is gnome-cygwin, is this it?

I tried to compile GNOME 2.0 on cygwin unsuccessfully. But if there is a 
base framework
there, I'd be very interested in anjuta, and could help out with that.
Can I suggest that rather than just hosting diffs you actually have the

If you import it into CVS you can then import later versions again and 
merge the changes.
Since sourceforge is hosting it you shouldn't have bandwidth problems...
