Some people have expressed interest recently in finding patches that have been sent to wine-patches and have not yet been accepted into winehq. The hope is that we can put some effort into getting feedback to the authors of recent ones, and maybe the old abandoned patches will catch the interest of some wandering developers.
Sifting them out from the wine-patches archives is unfortunately not trivial. I'm way too lazy to try to create a bot for this, but I figure there may be enough interest to do it manually, going through the wine-patches messages and searching for similarly-named messages in wine-patches and wine-cvs. We just need to make sure we don't duplicate effort. If people end up using this information effectively, maybe someone will write a bot. If not, well, then it's good no one wasted time on it.
To this end, I have created this wiki page: http://wiki.winehq.org/RejectedPatches
I've gone through the submissions to wine-patches over one day and added the rejected entries to that page, sorted based on whether there's been a response.
Anyone is welcome to use/update this information as they see fit and to expand the range of checked messages (but not into the future, at least until we get another round of commits).
