I've been advocating this approach for awhile, so I'd definitely be
intrested in seeing this come to pass...  I don't know how much I can
contribute to coding b/c I'm not that much of a Windows programmer
and I have other Cygwin projects I'm working on.  Still, it would be
*way* cool if this were possible.  I guess one could think of it as
being the step inbetween Cygwin and ReactOS.  Unfortunately, I fear
most people's intrest doesn't involve realizing Cygwin/XFree's full
potential, as they'd rather use it as a "dumb" X-Terminal.

Cheers,
Nicholas
