As previously announced (http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2009-06/msg00901.html),
the 'pmcyg' tool allows a personalized collection of Cygwin packages
to be created together with all the supporting files necessary
for a self-contained off-line Cygwin installer, e.g. for burning onto
CDROM or DVD.

The latest (beta) version of pmcyg has just been released
via http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/pmcyg.

Recent changes include:

  * Facilities for creating a template list of all available Cygwin packages
  * More consistent handling of packages in the 'Base' category
  * Support for creating 'autorun.inf' files for use on CD or DVD distributions
  * Better handling of setup.* filenames to prepare for Cygwin 1.7
  * Improved documentation
