Thanks! Some further issues:

In setup.hint, the first letter of an sdesc is typically capitalized - just 
run setup.exe and look at the descriptions visible in the package picker to 
see what other packages do.

The naming of the packages has a problem: Cygwin packages are 
NAME-VERSION-RELEASE, of which only NAME may further "-" characters. Since 
the upstream package contains a "-" within it's version, changing this to a 
"_" would be a suitable workaround. Thus, the binary package would be named: 
doxygen-1.4.2_20050410-1.tar.bz2.

A source package should be labelled with the addition of "-src", not "_src".

My name has no "c" in it. :-)

Thanks for accomodating my request that the original upstream source be 
included. It is more usual to include the upstream tarball itself, though. 
Despite this being only an intermediate snapshot, it is available as a 
tarball: http://www-kp3.gsi.de/~kp3softd/doxygen/.

One further suggestion: I think it would be appropriate to include only the 
html version of the manual. Including the PDF format too substantially 
increases the size of the package, for no real gain - it's just duplication. 
(This is a personal suggestion - it isn't part of established Cygwin 
policy - though perhaps we should actually make a Cygwin policy on this kind 
of issue).

Max.
