Hi cygwin,

The auto-forwarding of announcements from the cygwin-announce mailing list
to the cygwin mailing list has been removed.

This seems to be hard to make work reliably (sometimes it doubles the
messages, sometimes they don't get forwarded), apparently prevents us from
adding a meaningful standard footer (e.g. with unsubscribe instructions, so
we have to rely on maintainers remembering to add it manually), and no-one
seems to know why we're doing it.

If you want to continue to receive these announcements in the future, please
consider subscribing to the cygwin-announce mailing list (or reading it via
news://news.gmane.io/gmane.os.cygwin.announce, or via the various protocols
that inbox.sourceware.org provides).

Can someone with appropriate access update https://cygwin.com/lists.html then
please? It still says " Announcements sent to cygwin-announce are automatically
sent to the Cygwin mailing list so there is no reason to subscribe to both ...".

Thanks for pointing this out.  I have removed that sentence.
