Subject:	The Cygwin mailing lists are rather archaic and cumbersome aren't they...?

I was rather surprised at the cumbersome nature of the Cygwin mailing lists.
There are difficult to manage, and the fact that all mails appear in your
mailbox, whether related to a post or not is, not what I would have
expected. The Cygwin environment is very comprehensive, but something as
simple as a poor support system (and compared with all the others I use,
this is poor) can restrict interest.

Sorry to be critical, but I was taken a-back. Is it going to be improved by
using a newsgroup for example?

Stephen Ford
