Personally, what bugs me is that if Wine fixes something, it's our responsability to merge it and cope with it. If we fix something, it's still our responsability. This latter statement bugs me. Of course it's up to us to implement Wine's changes, but why should we be the ones that also send our pathces back to wine, and have them all formatted back into Wine mode. It seems unfair to me that they don't submit their bug fixes to us, and it's up to us to sync and make them proper, while it's ALSO up to us to wineize our patches and send them to Wine.
Anyways, whatever tool/script makes importing Wine's code into ROS and making it look nice is 100% OK with me.
What's needed is a clearer separation of responsibilities. ReactOS need to focus on kernel level stuff. Wine can help here by separating their stuff more, but ReactOS can also help a lot by making easier to automatically import of usermode DLLs from Wine.
