I don't see what you mean, the majority of discussion or request for help
with wine is to do with applications, if a user is experiencing a problem
with an application on any distro it still relevant to the application.

This is why I think that my idea of simply creating useful view of the
current data and a slightly different styled interface would be better
than websites like wine-forum.org.

I don't see the point in discussing forks of wine in a _wine_ discussion
forum, discussion of other projects should be elsewhere imo.
