Geonode x Cygwin partnership

[Maria S]

Hi Red,

Just floating this back up. When I talk to app owners, the same three questions come up:

1. Is it safe for my users? Yes. Nothing runs without a clear opt-in, people can leave anytime, and the network is audited and compliance focused.
2. Does it change my app? No. No ads, no UI changes, Cygwin works exactly like it does today.
3. What does it pay? Monthly, per active user who opted in. Reply and I'll send what partners actually earn, not marketing math.

However Cygwin makes money today, ads, donations or nothing at all, this adds a new channel on top. More revenue per user, for basically no work.
