Here are the patchsets that I've sent in the last few months:

1. https://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin-apps/2018-03/msg00033.html
This still applies to the current HEAD.

2. https://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin-apps/2018-03/msg00051.html
This also applies to the current HEAD.

3. https://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin-apps/2018-04/msg00002.html
This needs to be tweaked slightly.  I'll send a v2 today or tomorrow.

Next, there's the tentative proposal I made in 
https://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin-apps/2018-04/msg00000.html, with a 
cygport patch that isn't quite right.  That could use some followup 
eventually.

Finally, there's the older patchset attempting to distinguish between 
user URLs and Cygwin mirrors:

  https://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin-apps/2017-12/msg00051.html

with a followup patchset here:

  https://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin-apps/2017-12/msg00066.html

I'm honestly not sure whether this "user URL" idea is worth pursuing, 
because it might end up confusing users more than it helps them.  But if 
you think it is, I'll push it to a branch for further work.
