Hello

I'm not always agreement with  Vinod's opinion but I cannot understand why others ignore him.
Only I have made replies to him.  I am a mere user of cygwin.  
In addition I'm a XP user so that I do not understand what is the problem about the cygwin on the
VISTA.

I think that the purpose of the cygwin is to realize giving us Unixy evironmets and enabling us to use
Unixy software on the Windows.
The VISTA is now populateing day by day.  
I think it is important to discuss what is the problem of the cygwin on the VISTA.

I ask the cygwin people reply to Vinod and do positive discussions.

Regards

Tatsuro
