For this project making sense, we need as muchos CD entries as possible -
no sense in fighting a religous war, showing those Win32 pagans the
light .. (let's do this later :)

How about some GPL flogging in the meantime?

At first the mere existence of the GIMP for Win32 was shocking to me,
thinking how could this guy dare to offer "our" gem to those microserfs.
But in its present state the GIMP port was useful enough to allow me
to introduce it to several colleagues while being crappy enough to tell
them "it would run perfectly, if you would switch to a decent OS!" - so I
began to see it as a kind of teaser/trojan horse.
Same holds true for Cygwin.
