Num lines in dirs: C:\cygwin\bin = 1152 C:\cygwin-1.7\bin = 289 WHY SO FEW?

I just now installed 1.7.

Where *is* everything?

bin has 289 files, whereas the non-beta has 1152.





So, just how "beta" is 1.7.  "Alpha"?

Or am I missing something, eg there's still lots more
for me to install "by hand"?


Oh, someone tell me how to find the version number of a cygwin,
and I can tell you what mine is.  (Looks like the most recent
files in bin are 15june09, so pretty darned recent, my "standard"
cygwin.)

Oh, *roughly* when might 1.7 become the standard cygwin?  A year
or so?


Thanks!

David
