Please remove "sourcemaster" link from cygwin-xfree page


I'd like to request that the 'sourcemaster@cygnus.com" address be
removed from the cygwin-xfree web pages.  In 99.99% of the cases, I've
found that people send inappropriate mail there -- mail that should
really go to the project mailing list.

My theory is that "sourcemaster" sounds like an individual while a
"mailing list" is a potentially frightening place filled with hostile
users.

Regardless, I've removed it from the cygwin mailing list.  I was
surprised to get some email today at sourcemaster@cygnus.com regarding
cygwin.  A grep revealed this address on the cygwin-xfree web pages.

Even if you disagree with the need to advertise this link, the address
is wrong.  It should be sourcemaster@sources.redhat.com.  I would still
rather not advertise it however.
