However, on this same thread wanabe committed a patch I generated which only touched mingw section of mkexports. If I has given commits bits, I would have done the same. I would like to understand better the roles and responsibilities before offering myself as maintainer in the light of possible "mistakes" I could make in the quest of a better MinGW support for Ruby.
