FYI, you are coming across as ungrateful for the help provided by six
people (one of which was a Cygwin lead) in this thread.

Pragmatically speaking, focusing (in two messages) on one non-English
speaker's use of the word "crap", disregarding the help that he and
others provided, and then going into full bombast mode, is not an
effective way to achieve support.  Perhaps that's fine with you because
you don't plan on sullying our mailing list again but I just thought I
should make that clear.  References:

Also, some more warmth: It is likely that if you choose to reply in the
tone of the above that you will be redirected to the cygwin-talk mailing
list.  Ranting is allowed there.  Not so much here.
