Send an announcement to cygwin-announce?


Harold, do you want to send an announcement to cygwin-announce?

If so, I'd appreciate it if you'd pattern it on one of the announcements
that you find in the cygwin-announce archives, e.g., see below.

The important bit is to set Reply-To to cygwin-xfree and mention
cygwin-xfree in the announcement.

I'll set up a cygwin-xfree-announce in the next couple of days,
too.

Should there be a link to setup.exe on the Cygwin/XFree86 web page.

(who's so happy that this is part of the main installation now)

Subject: New package: XFree86 4.2.0
Reply-To: cygwin-xfree@cygwin.com

The XFree86 package developed by the Cygwin/XFree86 project is now
part of the standard distribution.  You can select it by clicking on
the XFree86 portion of the package selection after clicking on
the "Install Cygwin Now!" link at the main cygwin web page.

Blah, blah.

If you have questions or comments, please send them to the Cygwin
mailing list at: cygwin-xfree@cygwin.com .  I would appreciate it if you
would use this mailing list rather than emailing me directly.

If you want to make a point or ask a question, the cygwin-xfree mailing
list is the appropriate place.
