[Mingw-w64-public] Wine and mingw-w64 cooperation

[Biswapriyo Nath]

Thank you for this great idea. I agree with the cooperation. But I have
some questions and concerns.

1. What will happen to all the mails, patches, users contributions, issues,
releases etc.?
2. Where should we now send the emails and patches? I would suggest for a
separate mailing list.
3. Will all the coding practices, restrictions (e.g. c89) of wine
repository also apply to mingw-w64 repo?
4. What will happen to the other dependent FOSS projects like ReactOS,
msys2, cygwin etc.? Are they aware of this thought?
5. Many Linux distributions have their own packages and patches, what about
them?

Last one, in my opinion, I will not vote for the rebranding/renaming the
repository because that may cause many confusion to normal users who are
used to saying the name. There are hundreds of forums (also the whole Stack
Exchange) where "mingw-w64" is a thing :)

Thank you <3
