No, it isn't true. There will probably be a reason why the patch wasn't accepted. Wine have strict guidelines with regards to accepting patches. If a patch doesn't comply, it is dropped without a reply.

Well, I hope it wasn't true, but it is. He should never had posted it with the word ReactOS in the subject line. I saw the patch, I thought it was fine and clean. It looked very much like a normal wine rc file to me.

You know sometimes Alexandre gets busy and just drops patches. It happens. If he is doing a major infrastructure change sometimes they gets pushed off for a few days and some slip through. You can always try to resend and ask for comment.

Not to start a flame war or an argument, but major infrastructures changes should be done for now... Wine 1.0.0 is right around the corner, and this is the prime time when patches are being looked at, afaik. Just a nitpick however... don't take this as my theory that it WAS intentional..I don't think it was..at least, I hope not.

Yeah I kind of agree but there are two sides to the argument. Wine 1.0 being around the corner is like saying the second coming is going to happen soon. The infrastructure is frozen as far as external applications are concerned but there are new features being added that Alexandre is working on. The whole goal of 0.9.x is that apps don't break from one rev to another but there is still new features that can be view as infrastructure changes. Better driver loading for copy protection, the OS/X porting, proper media by HAL and Dbus for removable devices. All of which are enhancements over the current code.
I see translations as something that can and does get dropped quite often. Its best just to assume it was dropped and resend.
