Personally, I prefer to just think of this project as a free software
project. It's always possible to find people who are willing to do
programming for $$$ (and I am definitely not volunteering for this) so
that should be a given.
Also, Red Hat has their own supported distribution so I wouldn't assume
that they would be thrilled to make changes in the cygwin net disro to
accommodate someone else's attempts to install packages.
