https://cygwin.com/setup.html explains how a package should basically
look like.  The actual packaging should then be done via the cygport
tool, it makes creating packages pretty simple.

For uploading a package a new mechanism has been implemented which
allows a maintainer to do the upload by himself after he got the
GTG on the cygwin-apps list.  For inforamtion on this, please have
a look at https://sourceware.org/cygwin-apps/package-upload.html
