Hmmm... Out of 4 replies I've seen now 3 (or 75%) were about money. Which leads to the question - why _that_ many people in the wonderful world of OpenSource are obsessed with money?

Hi, [...]
Welcome to the real world
Yes, we welcome you to the wonderful world of OpenSource.
Please understand that a lot of us are not being paid ... and so just
chose
what to do. Some of us are paid to work on WINE, but for specific tasks.
So your bug might lie around until someone bothers to look at it. Or not if it is tickling the interest of a developer.
#3270 ... is difficult, since it is lowlevel USER stuff. #3269 ... Not hard, its just that no one implemented it yet.
Please do not keep up such high expectations, they are not warranted and will not be fulfilled.
Or hire a wine developer to specifically work on those tasks ,-)
Yours,
