The Cygwin project should only be pushing away toxic people, and multiple mailing lists do not have that happy side effect.I've never seen a reply saying "that's not on topic here, go away" thatcould be read as you describe.

(had to do with ignoring case, and creating it with a case ignoring FS on linux would have been too much of a pain (like XFS has such an option) . project owners constantly like to pass the buck in hopes the user will give up...usually project owners win because reporting bugs is too much trouble. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
