Hi everyone. cyg-apt last updated almost a year ago. I think it's time to 
choose a live fork or create a new one.
Here's a small summary of similar tools I found:
{{{
tool:        cyg-apt
url:         http://code.google.com/p/cyg-apt/

tool:        apt-cyg

}}}
Maybe there're others.

imho, this project still looks more promising than the others. I didn't take a 
close look on other python scripts, but viewed apt-cyg.
I think this task is too complex for bash, although apt-cyg may work better now.

I also fixed the known bugs and made a fork with a new release:

https://github.com/nylen/cyg-apt

I did this before I saw basinilya's work, but mine has a few extra things too.

I'm currently not interested in developing cyg-apt.
