Perhaps I should have been more precise with my dates. The Windsor touring bike frame has the same frame geometry as my daughter’s 2003 Fuji touring bike. Fuji used that frame for a number of years around 2000 to about 2010 and perhaps beyond. It’s been known for a long time that they are the same bikes. Component specification has changed.
