Bzzzt.  Web?  Just say no.  In fact if the list went there, I'd drop it.
Web is fine for initial research, but beyond that it's a waste of time.
Certainly, browser interfaces for reading and sending messages on the Web
are at least a decade behind what's available for mail and news on Unixen.

| Look, if you guys had any smarts, you would scrap the mail version of this

| That way, people interested in knowing what is going on in the discussion

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