The proper way to unsubscribe from the list is to send mail to the LIST 
SERVER address, NOT the list address itself.  If you don't know what the
address is that you should send to, check the Cygnus web site.  It clearly
states the address and the process.  See:

   http://sourceware.cygnus.com/cygwin/lists.html

For example, people looking to get off the cygwin list should send mail to
cygwin-unsubscribe@sourceware.cygnus.com.

TIA,

It is especially ironic that I just sent out email with instructions on how
to do this to the whole list.

This email seemed to be immediately followed by a flood of people who
are attempting to unsubscribe in the wrong way.

RE: unsubscribe

[Simon Quellen Field]

How many times over the past few years have we seen 'unsubscribe'
messages?  When that many people can't figure out how to do common
operations with a piece of software, maybe it's time to blame the
software instead of the people.

How difficult can it be to write a list server that looks at the mail it is
about to send, checking for content that has nothing but the word
'unsubscribe' in it?  Certainly once it has found such a piece of mail,
it is not brain surgery to decide not to mail it out to the list, but
instead to simply honor the request.

Maybe the problem is that the list server was designed to make
Multi-Level Marketing easy, (hence the name 'ezmlm'), and people
who cater to spammers have a different outlook than a bunch of
programmers who donate their time to providing free software to
the world.

Maybe the next free software project should be a smarter list server.

Re: unsubscribe

[Christopher Faylor]

Actually, you have seen very few unsubscribe messages in the last few
years because the previous mailing list software was set up to do pretty
much what you describe.

As should be painfully obvious, we are still in the process of tweaking
the new mailing list software.  We didn't get everything exactly right
in our first attempt.

Also, you're responding to a thread that died out almost a week ago.

Personally, I find these little bad-humored, off-topic rants much more
distracting than the occasional 'unsubscribe' message.

YMMV.

Although I agree with your sentiment, Chris, I think you picked the wrong target.
I did not find Simon's post to be a bad-humored rant at all. (Off-topic - well,
probably so, yes) Truthfully, I thought he expressed a good idea - and rather
than whining about some problem, he proposed a solution. That's what the
open-source community is all about, right?

RE: unsubscribe

How many times over the past few years have we seen 'unsubscribe'
messages?  When that many people can't figure out how to do common
operations with a piece of software, maybe it's time to blame the
software instead of the people.

How difficult can it be to write a list server that looks at the mail it is
about to send, checking for content that has nothing but the word
'unsubscribe' in it?  Certainly once it has found such a piece of mail,
it is not brain surgery to decide not to mail it out to the list, but
instead to simply honor the request.

Maybe the problem is that the list server was designed to make
Multi-Level Marketing easy, (hence the name 'ezmlm'), and people
who cater to spammers have a different outlook than a bunch of
programmers who donate their time to providing free software to
the world.

Maybe the next free software project should be a smarter list server.

The proper way to unsubscribe from the list is to send mail to the LIST 
SERVER address, NOT the list address itself.  If you don't know what the
address is that you should send to, check the Cygnus web site.  It clearly
states the address and the process.  See:

For example, people looking to get off the cygwin list should send mail to
cygwin-unsubscribe@sourceware.cygnus.com.

Look at the e-mail header from any e-mail you recieve from a Cygwin mailing 
list, and you should see a 'List-Unsubscribe:' header, which contains the 
address you can use to unsubscribe yourself via e-mail.

Also, look at <http://sources.redhat.com/lists.html#unsubscribe-simple>.

cygwin@ is less likely to work than cygwin-unsubscribe@.  In fact, it
won't work at all.  The correct last-ditch address to use is
cygwin-help@ which goes to a human who can manually fix things.

OK!  Enough!

I have gotten several email messages from people pointing out that the

Otherwise, this is completely off-topic and I apologize for even contributing

Can we stop discussing this now?

Re: OpenGL and glut with B20.1

[Suhaib M. Siddiqi]

Brian Kasper last week sent me a set of Mesa 3.0 libraries for
Cygwin-B-20.
He did a really good job in porting Mesa to Cygwin-B20.

You can find precompiled LessTif 0.87 at
ftp://ftp.lesstif.org/pub/hungry/lesstif/bindir for
Cygnus-B-20.  I compiled them.  LessTif organization requested to
redistribute them
through LessTif ftp server instead of a third party site.  The Cygnus
precompiled version in that
archive is missing libXlt.a and libXlt.dll.  If you need Xlt port for
Cygnus-B20, let me know and I will
send it to you.  Beware, it is a 1.78 MB big file.
