Chris Faylor (cgf@@cygnus.com) is behind many of the recent
|

changes in Cygwin. Prior to joining Cygnus, he contributed significant

fixes to the process control and environ code, reworked the strace
|

mechanism, and rewrote the signal-related code from scratch as a Net
|

contributor. In addition to continuing to make technical contributions,
