Thanks for the offer but I don't like the color scheme or the
newly-invented logo.  There also isn't enough to go on in this page to
really decide if it's worth changing especially since I can't look at
the html and so, don't know how hard it would be to maintain -
especially since that look and feel would have to be propagated to all
the other cygwin pages.
