From: Jon TURNEY <jon.turney@dronecode.org.uk> To: Cygwin/X announce list <cygwin-xfree-announce@cygwin.com> Subject: cygwin-xfree list deprecation Date: Tue, 03 Mar 2015 20:45:00 -0000 [thread overview] Message-ID: <54F61BB7.3020109@dronecode.org.uk> (raw) Dear Internet, It no longer makes much sense to have a separate list for Cygwin X related traffic, so the cygwin-xfree list is now officially deprecated. Reasons for this decision include: - the level of traffic on the cygwin-xfree list is low - splitting the traffic in this way currently serves no useful purpose - the distinction between what is and is not an X issue is artificial, vague, and often ignored The cygwin-xfree list will continue to operate, but I suggest and encourage you to use the main cygwin list for all your cygwin X server and X application related questions, bug reports, moans, gripes, whines and patches ;-). The Cygwin X website and documentation will be updated to point to the main cygwin list. Mail delivery for the cygwin-xfree list may be turned off at some future date, but even if that happens, the list archives will continue to be available. Live Long and Prosper, Jon -- Jon TURNEY Volunteer Cygwin/X X Server maintainer
