Doesn't matter.  This is not a democracy where random people who figure
out how to send email to a mailing list get to vote on policy.  Move to
the talk list if you want to discuss personalities.  Take it as YA of my
character flaws that I will shut down discussion here if you continue.

This on the other hand is a valid, if potentially baseless, topic for
the Cygwin mailing list.  If you think quality has suffered then provide
details.  I know that I and the other 60 or so Cygwin volunteers will be
interested in knowing how we could improve things.
