Hi!
Hello

If this is that way, it would be real a horror. Why are code patches
which allows a huge major app (key application) to run on linux
"unacceptable" (From point of view of the MS users). Do we here make
trench warfares? Or are there quality conceivabilities which are
completely unrealistic? Shouldn't we not see the major goal of wine?
To run windows apps on linux? Not to have a few lines code a bit
better quality etc. I think we don't have the choice to reject code.
Be very very thankful for each line which is checked in!! I think some
responsible persons are to deep in the code. They are looking just
into the code but can't see the benefit of the code for the wine
project itself. Why don't just accept the code? There is enough time
later to make it more "beautiful" or correct it to a better quality.
But for the moment, some of the code directly allows important apps to
work.

I checked the Codeweavers version of Wine, there are a lot of
"Codeweaver "HACK HACK HACK" Alerts"
everywhere in key dlls. I compared it with 0.9.16 since the Codeweavers
wine VERSION stated it.
Amazing!
