I am more than willing to do a little bit of extra work to keep our trees in synch but the simple fact remains that if the only way to get something accepted into Wine is to create a new Win95 installation and see how things work there I'm probably not going to bother.
I do quite a bit of work to keep things in sync and thats by working as much as I can by working out of winehq CVS but that doesnt mean the rest of the ReactOS developers are going to follow. I still try to merge thier patches as I can but I am only one person. A big part of the problem with us merging some of the changes for the controls back in is:
1. They dont add much to WINE except cleaning up the TWEAK_WINELOOK stuff. I would have already started sending patches to remove this code from Winehq but I am wanting uxtheme to come along a little more so we can see if we can create a Win 3.1 theme before I throw all of the Win3.1 style support out the Window.
2. We have quite a few hacks in our support of the controls. In quite a few cases such as Menu and Scrollbar support its not just a matter of a recompile but a major rewrite. If you guys want to share more code then I will create a dummy implementation of Win32k.sys for WINE so we can share everything.
Thanks Steven
