Hmm, well, the link talks about *packaging*, not package submision :-)
I already read the link from the FAQ you're refering to; I've packaged
up the binary and source tar balls following exactly this procedure.
Now, what I need to know is how to *upload* (not package) these files
to the mirrors.

Regarding the anouncement, I was planning on just sending to
cygwin-announce (and letting the moderator approve/reject my
announcement) but I wanted to know what the "approved" procedure was
before I did anything.
