Nix Package Manager for Cygwin and Reproducible cygwins

[Florian Friesdorf]

Hi,

we'd like to announce that we ported the nix package manager and a
preliminary set of its package definitions to cgywin.

Our work is detailed here:
http://ternaris.com/lab/nix-on-windows.html

As part of it we are describing obstacles we encountered and how we set
up a custom mirror to provide our own packages and gain reproducible
cygwin environments.

Please let us know if you have any questions/feedback.

regards
