cygwin32-mount.el

Some time ago I found a reference to a piece of elisp called cygwin32-mount.el
which give Emacs the ability to read files using their Cygwin mount names.  Does
anyone know if this is still being maintained by anyone?  If so, where do I get
the latest version.

I have enhanced it as follows:

	1. Added support for /cygdrive style drive maps.
	2. Hacked a fix to a bug where ange-ftp would not work when this
	   was loaded.

Here is the code if anyone is interested.
