wine patches the black hole of code

,----[ Quote ]
| # Patches rarely receive feedback - positive or negative - on the 
| wine-patches list 
| 
| # Patches that are rejected aren't labelled as such, or publicly given a 
| reason for why they were 
| 
| # Hundreds of patches don't get in, that just need a tweak or two, that would 
| REALLY improve the wine experience 
| 
| # These failed patches can't easily be seen by anyone unless they know 
| exactly what to Google for
