I think I need a daily message to explain that we know that Windows XP
does not work.

We will fix it eventually.

Sending plaintive email here or, worse, adding to-do list items with
"bug reports" is not going to get Windows XP working any faster.

If this is unacceptable then your only option is to debug Cygwin on
Windows XP and provide a patch.

Well, I hate to spoil everyone's fun and all, but I've been using Cygwin
under XP for about a month and a half now with not a single hiccup. It
worked with RC1 and since I've gone to RC2 it's continued working. Am I
the only one?

It really doesn't matter.  If people are reporting bugs, we have to fix
them eventually.

Can't the message-server do some filtering.. If it detects Windows XP
in a mail, return it to the sender and tell him why :-)
