I think it's a stupid idea. The idea of a bunch of ignorant people asking each other how to do things that only marginally relate to cygwin is certainly not a newsgroup that I want be anywhere near. However, my opinion doesn't really matter. Go ahead, create a mailing list. I won't be reading it. Maybe somebody clueful will join. At least you won't have to deal with me saying that things are off-topic. At least until the first time that someone cross-posts a "how does bash work" message between the two lists. cgf -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
