Wow those are some pretty significant updates!

I've loved the idea of bash-on-windows but it was missing just enough that it wasn't worth it moving away from my current love affair with the "git bash" system I'm using.

With these changes, it looks like I'll be jumping ship when it comes to stable!

Great work to everyone involved!

Agreed... I tried it for about a day, then went back to git bash. Will probably give it a try again after it goes to release. For now, I've been sshing into a linux vm, and using samba/cifs to mount my linux ~/ so I can edit in windows, but better integration would be nice.
