Amir,
The proper place to discuss setup.exe changes is the cygwin-apps list (or,
if you don't want to subscribe, the main cygwin list). I'm forwarding
this message there, and setting Reply-To appropriately.
To answer your question, yes, I bet Max (the setup.exe maintainer) would
be glad to see your changes. Please send a patch (in unidiff format, with
the appropriate ChangeLog -- see <http://cygwin.com/contrib.html>) to the
cygwin-apps list.
Igor
