Hi
Have had trouble getting through to wine-devel@winehq.com, so reposting this to see... Funny, nothing's bounced...

What is NOT in 0.8: -- stable server protocol: no binary compatibility -- DLL separation: ditto
IMO the goals for 0.9 will be reached before the ones for 0.8 so you might as well put everything together...
Maybe so, you know this better. But 0.9 needs what's listed here anyhow, if we hit the 0.9 targets before, no harm's done. I am not that optimistic about the DLL separation. The x11drv is a bit of a mess, as we have a WND structure maintained by USER, which x11drv needs access to. It needs work. And in general, the separation work that's left is not trivial, and you seem to be the only one qualified to do it. And you are one busy guy...
Does anyone have any info on what needs to be done to separate out the WND structure from USER? Is there any other stuff that should be separated out into x11drv? Presumably even if the separation isn't trivial some pointers could enable others to give it a try...
