cygwin-apps is a... wait for it... mailing list. It is a *moderated* mailing list. It is moderated for a reason. Having it moderated for email and not moderated for anyone who figured out how to use gmane has already been shown to be a bad idea. I don't want a back door method for people to send their bug reports and package requests to this list. cgf
