perhaps if the main cygwin mailing list were renamed to cygwin-
asbestos-longjohns ( http://www.cnam.fr/Jargon/jargon.html?64 ) 
it would set expectations in a way that would cut down the level 
of shock and surprise (I'm not shocked, but I'm pretty much in 
agreement with http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/faqs/smart-
questions.html ).

Naahhh.  Nothing would be sufficient.  This is life on the net.  
The unacculturated proportion of the stream never goes down 
because of the continual influx.
