Wow.  I should have remembered that you don't follow these things and
been clearer.  I actually was expressing incredulity at your inability to
maintain consistency within the span of two email messages.

Anyway, I really do have the right to ask for opinions from whomever I
see fit and I clearly asked for the opinions of the subset of cygwin
users in this mailing list.

But, yes, I know.  You don't follow.  And, undoubtedly you have an
audience of one who greatly enjoys petulant, confused observations about
what's appropriate for which mailing list so you will be not following
for the foreseeable future.  We all get that by now.
