Sure. My assumption was that cygwin@cygwin.com would be a good place for 
occasional questions of that kind.
Also I had somewhat associated the google groups list with the closing 
google code area but that's probably not proper.
If you prefer to divert traffic off this list, I'll reconsider. Also, if 
people start discussions on the old list, I can still mention it on the 
homepage.

I have a package now to publish but need to find a timeslot to fiddle 
with the lftp upload...
