--- Comment #24 from mirh <mirh at protonmail.ch> ---
There's a lot of misinformation (by clueless users) on the net about gfwl. 
Its older versions being bugged on W10 basically gets handed down as "microsoft
shut it down". See here for all the actually updated files

Then, while I have no knowledge about wine "best practices" (I thought dlls
were reimplemented here, when some value could be added, like with OpenAl)..
for much as xlivelees still has its point in skipping needless drm, I don't see
why at all it should have something to do with wine. 

It provides even *less* features than the "official" implementation, and it
doesn't even seem all that common library many people would appreciate. 

If any, why not making this about whatever blocking issue there is now?
(or whatever, I don't remember the rationale for tracker bugs here)
