If you already have the former Cygwin Copyright Assignment signed and submitted, you're all set. Otherwise, just make a public statement that you provide your patches to the Cygwin sources under the 2-clause BSD license. You can do that, for instance, with your first patch submission. After your first patch has been approved and applied, your name and email address will be added to the new winsup/CONTRIBUTORS file. That's all. For the wording of the 2-clause BSD license, see the winsup/CONTRIBUTORS file. Contributions to the newlib sources are still exempt from this procedure.
