OK, I stand corrected.  If this discussion stays on target and addresses how
the GPL version of CYGWIN affects someone's program and that differs from 
how the GPL would affect that program if it used some other GPLed library,
then I would agree that continued discussion should remain on this list.  If
the discussion becomes one of various people offering their opinion of what
the GPL means and what it affects, it seems beneficial to move that 
branch of the discussion to a more appropriate venue.
