It's common courtesy to keep OT off list.  If you respond to an OT then
don't include the list in the response.  If you think it's pertinent for
list members the cygwin AT cygwin DOT com is the place to post that.  All other
lists must remain per specified topic or the quality of developer time
will be diminished.  It seems that cygwin-apps posts tend to be a big
offender of OT posts.  Please review the http://cygwin.com/lists.html
page before posting to it or other lists.  We don't want
cygwin-apps AT cygwin DOT com to become YA cygwin AT cygwin DOT com.

The primary purpose of cygwin-apps is for maintainers of cygwin
distributed applications to communicate with one another.  It's not for
posting questions about the operation of the application.  If you're not
maintaining an application then you're safe post will be to
cygwin AT cygwin DOT com not to cygwin-apps AT cygwin DOT com.

Earnie.
