I actually prefer forums because there's less of a barrier to get
started. I can continue working through my browser, and I don't have to
setup a message filter.
Even if there's not a forum where developers participate, but just a
forum on winehq for users to help each other, I think that woul

The demo has write access for anonymous users, so yes.
Look at the Trac project's own ticket system instead.
Perhaps try one of these URLs.
