The WineX head branch hasn't quite had all the license and quartz updating
as yet, but you can find the detailed list in the WineX LICENSE file for
the winex-2-0-branch CVS branch:
  http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/*checkout*/winex/wine/LICENSE?rev=1.3.2.2

I tried contacting Hidenori for several weeks before we included the quartz
code in WineX 2.1, but without success.   His email address no longer seems
valid, and mail to the postmaster at his domain has gone unanswered.  Google
searches also turn up very little.
