We can always go with the first model.
How about Cygwin.dll? Presently, users have to download and install Cygwin dll
separately from Cygnus. This may confuse people with Cygwin packages on the
one hand, and W32/GNU packages on the other hand.
Do you plan to offer:
- a Windows native pkgd,
- our own W32/DEBIAN Cygwin.dll base package.

No problem. The idea is to work together in a community and make it. We can
always start releasing W32/Debian packages with a Cygwin dependency.
