You can all stop suggesting that we do the obvious thing with
cygwin-announce and cygwin.
As DJ has already pointed out, our mailing list software doesn't allow
this. The spam blocking software thinks mail from cygwin-announce to
cygwin is SPAM and doesn't forward it.
In the long-term we'll probably set up some nice software solution for
forwarding everything from one list to the other.
Otherwise, to me, this is a no-brainer. If you want to be reliably
notified about updates, subscribe to cygwin-announce.
However, we'll also Cc cygwin and we'll probably do a very good job at
it. I can't *guarantee* that we won't slip up and forget to Cc the
cygwin mailing list, though.
If this uncertainty ties your shorts in a knot, and cuts off the flow of
blood to your brain, then please subscribe to cygwin-announce before you
pass out.
