Hmm, for some reason a post by DaveK from five years ago has become a
minor sensation on reddit:
http://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/cu8fx/constructive_criticism_on_cygwins_mailing_list
Granted, it is a great example of the WJM tradition:
> Your code is 100% bogus and should be taken out the back,
> lined up against a wall, and machine-gunned.
>
> Then the bleeding corpse should be hung, drawn and quartered.
>
> Then burnt.
>
> Then the smouldering rubble should be jumped up and down on.
