MinGW - Minimalist GNU for Windows

Welcome to the MinGW project file distribution directories. This is the top level directory containing Installer, MinGW, MSYS and Other directories. You will find Base, Extension and Contribution directories that are futher broken down by package in the MinGW and MSYS directories. You will find mingw-get and mingw-get-inst in the Installer directory. The Other directory contain a hodgepodge of files and packages that have either been contributed or maintained once upon a time but may or may not still be useful. If you have a package you wish to see distributed by MinGW and are willing to commit to contributing it per direction from MinGW maintainers then please ask on the mingw-users@lists.sourceforge.net list. You will need to use the mgwport application to package your package per the MinGW specifications and you will need to create the XML files for the mingw-get meta data.
