It's not about licensing, it's about respect. You asked me a permission privately - I answered that I don't allow it. That's it.
I didn't ask your permission privately, I asked if the patch was unsafe for inclusion in Wine.
You asked is it OK to send my patches to winehq, and my response was - No.
The purpose of wine-staging is to prepare and test patches for inclusion in Wine.
My personal motivation for sending patches to wine-staging is pretty different.
Again, I asked Sebastian to send it on your behalf, precisely to avoid this argument. He told me to send it instead, so I did.
I'd appreciate if you could avoid sending my patches without my permission in future. Thanks.
@ Dmitry: The whole discussion is really ridiculous. First of all, don't blame Andrew, blame me. I told him that it is fine to send those patches. More importantly, if you plan to continue contributing to Wine Staging, you either have to send all of your patches yourself in a timely manner, or accept that other people pick up your patches and improve / send them. I have no idea why you see this as an insult. What are people supposed to do when they would like to get the bug fixed, and your solution is considered the right one? Would you prefer if people write an identical patch, and send it with their own name? (No, this is not meant as a serious question...) It is not really reasonable to expect everyone else to wait for your agreement / until you do it yourself. I also don't expect this for my own patches. In fact, I even appreciate when other people help with improving and upstreaming our stuff.
Best regards, Sebastian
