  Well, if ...

- you download a snapshot
- you find a bug
- you report it and discuss it on the list
- cgf says he's just created a snapshot to fix your bug

... you can infer by pure logic alone that he's not talking about the snapshot
that was uploaded *before* you reported your bug.

  You can also look at the hours and minutes in the timestamp listed on
http://cygwin.com/snapshots/ as well as the date and compare it to the one you
downloaded earlier in the day.

    cheers,
