It's discourteous to subscribe anyone to a list without their knowledge; I would take a dim view if you had subscribed me, and subscribing a mailing list is no different. In addition, the admin messages sent by mailing lists have no place on cygwin@cygwin.com; that alone is justification for Chris to block Shaolin mailings. > What would be the difference between getting an announcement through my > list, or having me post it directly?

I'm sure there's no objection to your posting information useful to Cygwin users. -- Cliff -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
