Pretty much any one of the mails archived at
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-announce/ serve as a guide.  Two things to
remember - the subject line does not need [ANNOUNCEMENT] (that gets added
automatically when the mail is carboned to the main cygwin list), and the
list unsubscribe information DOES need to be included in the body of the
text (the announce list does not add an unsubscribe trailer).

For a more relevant example, here was Volker's announcement for the
experimental xemacs release:
