Cygwin forum?

Has anyone found a forum where Cygwin users ask and answer questions?

There are thousands of forums somewhat similar to this one on the internet , but I have not found even one where there is a forum with a lively discussion about Cygwin, the Linux-like environment that makes Windows tolerable.

Being forced as I am to use Windows in my new job, I find that I am relying heavily on Cygwin to maintain my sanity. I am running into small problems that others may have solved, but I have no forum to ask questions. There is an email list, but I don't like those. I want a forum.

Is there one?

If you will promote it with the variour Cygwin mailing lists and new groups, I will create a forum here for you.
