Life's lonely on the Olympus... (SCNR). :-)
If you're willing to become the Cygwin minicom maintainer, please ITP it
using the due process (see <http://cygwin.com/setup.html>). If you're not
willing to maintain the package, and if nobody else steps in, chances are
nobody's interested.

P.S. The above document doesn't mention the ITP acronym, and it probably
should. See <http://cygwin.com/acronyms/#ITP>.
