Good assumption.  The rest of my peers are all very nice people,
selflessly contributing their spare time to the cygwin project.

In fact, many of them even seem to have infinite amounts of patience for
discussing these kinds of issues.

Anyway, I withdraw my previous objections to discussing Windows XP here.
I wouldn't want to have anyone else suffer through three hours worth
of investigation.

I am not going to modify the cygwin web page, however.  If some
enterprising individual (perhaps the person who wanted to start a survey
initially) wants to set up an unofficial web page, we can link to that
from http://cygwin.com/ .  Just enter it in the "news" section and
Corinna or I will see that it shows up.

I've spent enough time discussing Windows XP now.  I don't plan on
responding to any more messages about this until it is officially
supported in cygwin (or I need beta testers or something).

So, have fun, and discuss amongst yourselves.
