Circumstantial evidence aside, you don't see any official communications
from Red Hat in this mailing list and the words "Red Hat" do not show up
on the Cygwin/X project page except to reference the community-run
sources.redhat.com, which hosts x.cygwin.com.

Dig a little deeper in the web site and you'll see who supports Cygwin.

In any event, now you know.  There is not a staff of Red Hat engineers
backing this project.  It's an open source project similar to most other
open source projects.
