Sorry, I am not wine developer (and actually I do not have much fame as
C developer:) so I can't help here.

Did I tell Transgaming is evil? Did I tell "linux == free"? Track this
thread - you'll not find any phrases like this. I just have _my_ reasons
not to pay for this. That's my humble position, nothing more. I greatly
appreciate the things done by Transgaming and others (including VMware,
which I do use sometime) and always thank all the people working do
deliver good things for Linux. And "evil" is not making too much money.
"Evil" is completely different thing (guess what?)

OK. Thanks to their cvs, I have a chance. BTW, don't they have intension
to make at least source snapshots periodically?

:) Everything is related in the Universe...

Thanks for your comments.
