From the look of things Misha will be ok, but I imagine he would have
been anyway.

But there are also cases like e.g.
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=21233#c8 where you completely
miss the real issues in the patch, and instead recommend referring to
a bug number in the commit log,

Probably not my place to wade in here, but that's not true, he didn't mention the commit log:

"Be sure to mention in the post that it fixes 
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=21233"

I'm pretty sure he meant in the email when he emails wine-patches rather than in the commit log.

I've got to say Henri, I think you are being a little unfair here. Yes, possibly Dan has given flawed advice in the past, but it's nothing that a private email or chat on IRC wouldn't have solved.

Launching into a tirade against him publically isn't helping anything, all these instances are Dan trying to help out, quite obviously not to be "insidious" or to harm the project.
