Nicholas,
Chris has a script on his computer that copies messages sent to
cygwin-announce, prepends ``[ANNOUNCEMENT]'' onto the subject line, and
forwards the message to cygwin-xfree. We do not have such a script. I
always post my messages to both cygwin-xfree and cygwin-xfree-announce, and
I manually add the [ANNOUNCEMENT] to the subject line of the original
messages.
I hope that clears things up,
Harold
