Everyone,

The OLOCA [Official List of Cygwin Acronyms] is available for the referral
of newbies and your perusal from your friendly neighborhood CKOA [Cygwin
Keeper of Acronyms] at <http://cygwin.com/acronyms/>.  I'm sure I've
omitted plenty, but this is a first raw try, so do be considerate.

Perhaps now we should have an FAQ entry for "What the !@#$% is 'YOWTWYWT'?"
that points to the OLOCA...  Eventually...
	Igor
