And the response:

Perhaps you don't understand that Corinna isn't paid to support people
in this mailing list.  She's doing us all a favor by responding to our 
mail.  In this regard, she's just like every other person who tries to
help here.  Since her participation is entirely voluntary, she is well 
within her rights not to provide it if she doesn't want to.  And, if she
decides not to provide support then it seems only courteous to let
someone know about that.

Any indignation you may suffer because of your perception of
"professional behavior" is, misplaced.  Additionally, I should point out 
that publicly implying that someone is unprofessional is hardly a
professional way of dealing with this issue either.

When I claimed to be the leader of people who posted stupid things,
no one came to my defense or gave me support. Now just how
professional is that? Shouldn't that have created a burden to someone
to do something to help me out? LOL.

Is this still captioned "vulgar and unprofessional maillist"
or now the toned down " stuff tangentially related to cygwin?"
