Most cygwin development discussion occurs on the main list or on 
cygwin-apps.
Basically The general rule for cygwin apps appears to be that the first 
messgage in a thread has to
be about creation of new packages, or discussions about packaging policy. 
(Also requests for uploads go to that list).
Then the disussion can drift a little to more general cygwin development, 
but should still be in the context of a specific package.

Also, discussion of the development of setup.exe usually takes place on 
cygwin-apps, because that is the designated list for discussing bugs in 
setup.exe
