That brings me to a question I wanted to ask for a long time?

Where's cygwin's php and/or mysql. They probably got a lot going against
them but they are peoples choise. At least some communication would be
nice. And now riscing the lart, why doesn't cygwin cross the border and
take advantage of ported software. Lets face it, cygwin will never bring
posix to windows, but if it just posixs windows with a few cheats that
nobody cares about hey.......

OK back under the stone. I crawl.
