Not that I recall.  I believe you vetoed cgdb (as Ronald Landheer-Cieslak
mentioned already).  If you did, I apologize.  If not, I'm assuming you're
planning to.

May I inquire why you propose to veto this package?  FWICS, there are some
clear advantages to using DDD over insight in some contexts (e.g., insight
is a frontend for gdb only, whereas DDD handles other debuggers, as stated
on the list recently; insight is a Win32 app, whereas DDD is an X app;
possibly others).  FWIW, I'd vote for it.

In any case, this discussion is moot until someone volunteers to maintain
it and posts a package proposal to cygwin-apps.  Perhaps this needs to be
continued on that list once this happens, unless you've already decided to
veto the package no matter what.
