The announce list is mirrored to the main list because the information is vital. Things like changing CRLF line-end handling in bash create enough upheaval even when they /are/ heavily-trailed here! > Yes, I can filter these to trash easily enough. Obviously, since if you were at all bothered, you wouldn't have just reposted yourself and every single one of the rest of us a whole duplicate copy of the entire message. Thanks a bunch! Please believe me, the value of your wit and wisdom to the rest of us is not /so/ vast that we have to be notified of your every thought the moment it occurs to you just as fast as you can commit it to paper, without a moment to waste. Take the extra ten seconds to trim the spam off your replies; we'll still be here. cheers, DaveK -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
