This is the main reason. There is still some work to do but I plan on
having all defaults in Xming depend on the installation dir of Xming.


Er, I guess it's time I stepped in, then.

Since the name of this mailing list is "cygwin-xfree" and the site you
are using is cygwin.com, I would not expect too much traffic here
regarding non-cygwin solutions.

This *has* come up before and I think I'm being pretty consistent here.



Yes, this is right. If the port evolves and is more usable I'll search a new
home for it (most likely freedesktop.org). Currently only Øyvind and I were discussing things and this can be easily done by personal mail.


Alexander, I'd love to be kept informed of developments so I think it would be great if this could be done on a mailing list ... I'm sure the majority of cygwin-xfree subscribers wouldn't mind a bit of discussion here until a new home is found ...
