Please don't commandeer other threads for your own use.  If you have
something to say that doesn't relate to existing threads, just send a
new email message with the new topic to the list.  Replying to an existing
message links that reply to the existing thread, even if you change the
subject.

Any chance you'd be interested in maintaining the official Cygwin FAQ and/or
documentation?  That would be a big help to the Cygwin community.
