I agree. I understand the reason for the discussion here of the most 
recent X-related thread -- it seemed to be a "borderline" case to me. 
It concerned ssh and x-forwarding, and seemed to only minimal concern 
xfree.  Reasonable people could disagree as to whether *that* thread 
belonged here, or on cygwin-xfree.

I lean toward cygwin-xfree, and apparently, you do as well, Chris. 
Since you're the moderator (as it were), you have the authority to 
establish *exactly* where the border is, for these "borderline" cases.

Thanks for clarifying the issue.
