I like the idea of first trying this as a series of newsgroups on a 
small server, perhaps at cygnus.com, before joining it to the comp.* 
hierarchy.  Then we can experiment with splitting it into different 
newsgroups to best sort the posts.

This will keep the readers/posters to basically whoever's on this 
mail list, and we wouldn't have the general "How about making Linux 
for Win95?" type posts :).

For help on using this list, send a message to
"gnu-win32-request AT cygnus DOT com" with one line of text: "help".
