If you consider yourself an inactive maintainer, perhaps you should let 
someone else takeover?

Thanks for the update. A few comments:

* I think the reference to WineTools and Sidenet should be removed. Wine 
version 20050725 is quite old. I think we should focus on having the 
latest AppDb pages document the latest Wine, rather than old stuff.

* The manual installation still doesn't work for me (see bug 5409 etc), 
but let's get back to that.

* I think it would be nice if you could include my command lines for 
fetching & extracting inseng.dll, for those users without a Windows 
installation nearby:

$ wget http://download.microsoft.com/download/ie6sp1/finrel/6_sp1/W98NT42KMeXP/EN-US/IE_S5.CAB
$ cabextract -L IE_S5.CAB
$ cabextract -L -F inseng.dll ie_5.cab
$ rm -rf ~/.wine ie_5.cab IE_S5.CAB
$ wineprefixcreate
$ cp inseng.dll ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32/
$ wget http://download.microsoft.com/download/ie6sp1/finrel/6_sp1/W98NT42KMeXP/EN-US/ie6setup.exe
$ wine ie6setup.exe
