Wow. Kudos to you two!

Could you comment on how (if) the cygwin version differs from a manual 
install of tex live, and how cygwin's packaging/versioning interacts 
with tlmgr?

I ask because tex live is not exactly a small download (~800MB), and I 
wouldn't want to lose all the extras I've brought in since then...

Thanks,
Ryan
