We value your contribution, however it's even more valuable to have developers that listen to feedback and fix their broken patches rather than just complaining loudly.
Thats not helpful, I'm trying to engage in a discussion on governance, I've long since given up on trying to argue with the current system, If a patch is rejected it goes to my local tree.
Since you know better, how about maintaining your own Wine tree and showing us how it's done?

Self evidently thats what I have to do until some core functionality patches find their way into WineHQ wine. It's not particularly hard, but it is time consuming to manage merge conflicts.
