I dont think thats a good idea, asking someone not to post
fixes/patches to wine-bugs.
Its upon the users to test his ideas, we may not incorporate his
patches into the main tree.
But his patches help us understand where the problem lies and how to
overcome it.
Its better that He/We post a disclaimer that the patch is for
informative and testing purposes.
And that they may not be included in main tree, but can be used upon
users discretion.
so that wine itself may not be held responsible, in case of any legal threat.
