I know its very tough to get patches done by newbies to get in, esp wine.
It's absolutely not hard to get patches accepted, be it Wine or any other
project. But it's absolutely required to listen for the comments and fix
your work accordingly.
Sorry, "listen for the comments" is not entirely correct. Often there are
no comments at all and the patches simply don't get applied.
That's not the case here.
If soemone is a newbie and really wants to get his/her patches accepted,
mail patches repeatedly once every day until the patches get applied or
someone comments.
It's hard to find a worse suggestion for a person sending patches. As there
was explained numerous times it's a very bad idea to flood wine-patches by
sending the same patch over and over, it makes a chance of accepting the patch
even less possible.
At the same time, ask on IRC why the patches didn't get
applied.
