If the code needs design discussions and so forth, then cygwin-developers become on topic, and you should join. Again, from the same page: "You can subscribe to or unsubscribe from any of the above lists by sending email to themailinglistname-subscribe AT cygwin DOT com or themailinglistname-unsubscribe AT cygwin DOT com respectively." > It's a pretty big patch, so I assume you'll need an assignment, > but at the same time I'm a college student working on my Thesis, so I > don't think they'll be a problem, but I'll ask my advisor. Cool. Please wait to send it in until you've got the assignment in the mail (and perhaps a scanned copy sent to Chris (Chris is this ok?) to expedite things).
