Ok, that's no. 2 and other packages are still missing the pro votes.
I could step in and be no. 3 but...


...where are all the subscribers of this list?  How should we ever
get enough positive votes for a package if nobody cares?  I always
see the same names if it comes to vote for a package and I see
always the same (less) names if it comes to reviewing a package.

The Cygwin net distro isn't sort of a one man show, it's a community
effort.  It's not Chris and me who are the responsible people for
reviewing a package and we are not the only people with the right 
to upload packages.

Please note, *all* maintainers are welcome to give his/her voice for
a new package.

And by all means I think a positive vote should be combined with at
least *some* reviewing of a package.

I failed to check this in the past sometimes but I will not upload
a package with less than three positive votes in future.


Outstanding packages:

	procps	(reviewed, 2 votes, John and me)
	ELFIO	(reviewed, 2 votes, Joshua and Nicholas)
	doxygen (reviewed, 0 votes)
	astyle	(NOT reviewed, 1 vote, Gareth)
