Sounds very interesting but it's quite short on details. If it's not Cygwin, then what is it?
> MinC is a tiny kernel which runs on Windows. The rest of the software was taken verbatim from OpenBSD, version 6.1. This means that by installing MinC, you run OpenBSD on your Windows machine at native speed.
How does it run this kernel? Presumably (?) it's running in user space, so how do these other tools communicate with it? Are they native(ish) Windows binaries like those built for Cygwin?
I suspect this could be an ingenious technical achievement but it's just hard to tell what exactly it is.
