@ Dmitry: The whole discussion is really ridiculous. First of all,
don't blame Andrew, blame me. I told him that it is fine to send those
patches. More importantly, if you plan to continue contributing to
Wine Staging, you either have to send all of your patches yourself
in a timely manner, or accept that other people pick up your patches
and improve / send them. I have no idea why you see this as an insult.
What are people supposed to do when they would like to get the bug
fixed, and your solution is considered the right one? Would you prefer
if people write an identical patch, and send it with their own name?
(No, this is not meant as a serious question...) It is not really
reasonable to expect everyone else to wait for your agreement / until
you do it yourself. I also don't expect this for my own patches. In
fact, I even appreciate when other people help with improving and
upstreaming our stuff.

Best regards,
Sebastian
