Thank you very much for all the hard work you did maintaining those RPMs! Your hard work is greatly appreciated.

I would like to say a thank-you as well. I only wrote to Mingw-devel and R-devel (an R package I regularly cross-compile for), but I have started distributing my cross-compiler rpm's a few days ago, and I learned from yours.

Mine is just one giant package put under /opt/mingw - there are two other sourceforge projects (besides mingw itself, which does not) which distribute cross-compiler rpms - one doing 4.3 and one doing 4.0.
As my primary purpose is compiling and build the windows build of something I wrote, I chose to keep it simple - it is just one rpm (unlike the other projects), and it is just a simple wrapper around the cross-build script rather than trying to scavenge it.
Hope it is useful to the people.
