--- Comment #4 from David dav75uk@yahoo.co.uk --- Given the capitals used in that last reply which came across unfriendly I think this is justified.
Woah woah, hold on a minute there. I realise you're a volunteer, but I'm a member of the public, unconnected with wine aside being a user of it, and I'd like to see wine work better and obviously I get more utility of it working better as the software I run with it will also work better. Thus I inform the project of problems I find in the hope that it at least indicates there is a problem and given this now broken game was free software until not long ago and there is no legal problem owning this game if you can find (likely) a free download still, it is possible for others to test and probably others maybe will have seen this issue or something similar with the software they run.
I have a very busy life and real clients of my own which pay money and they expect results, so my time gets focused there and the time I have left is focused on my own relaxation, my family and hobbies. If I get the time to do some regression testing (which to be fair is not a five minute job or an hour job even), and I'm probably only therefore likely to get time to track it to a version rather than a commit I will do so and upload the logs at that point. If this is no good for you, then I just won't bother. If wine developers can't write proper comprehensive tests so they don't break stuff every other version that is not my problem.
I suggest a rethink and be grateful for any support you do get from your users even if it's perhaps not as full and comprehensive as you'd like it to be. Thank you for free software, but you shouldn't be expecting users to do investigation work and should be happy at least for a bug report which might cross reference with something. If you want my time right away rather than when I can donate some, I will send my day rate across.
