I was just wondering, what does it take to get the wine folks to give a little more priority to business apps, over the games? Like fixing this bug? I am willing to help with donations, I already donated, but it does not seem as if it is going to be spent on business apps?
Wine is a volunteer project, most developers work on what interest them. There are tons of fixes going in for non-game stuff, e.g., crypt32/richedit/comdlg32/mshtml/etc.
Donations are always appreciated, but unfortunately as a volunteer project, it's hard to guarantee results. Printing is an area of wine that hasn't seen much work lately...perhaps Detlef's been busy?
Well, I guess I will just have to stick to using Sun VirtualBox, I kind of doubt this bug is ever going to be fixed, unless wine becomes so perfect that this bug actually becomes a priority?
