What about rather a coding / debugging frenzy ?
Considering the lots of time people seem to spend on fixing Bugzilla bugs (instead of fixing their 'own' bugs), I think learning how to code and to fix bugs yourself would be time better spend :-)

Is this meant to be ironic or something? I don't get it...

Well, yeah. Was just to say that raising 20 bugs on Bugzilla consecutively is maybe not the best way to get help...
For one, I do not know many bored Wine developpers who are waiting for some bugs to appear to have some work to do (I have enough bugs that I can find myself, I need no external help). And it also increases the risk of THE bug that will interest someone be submerged in tens of other reports.
Anyway, this is just my opinion about bug tracking (ie mostly useless on a product with undefined goals like Wine in its current state). If we had a list of supported applications, then bugtracking would be useful, and then only on those supported apps.
Oh well, I am sure a lot of people will disagree (heck, there are even some people who find Linux on the Desktop a good idea :-) ).

Man, you're looking for a fight, aren't you? :)

Well, it's more a 'good old days' feelings than a real theory. Ie the biggest problem I see with 'Linux on everybody's Desktop' is that it's damaging for the community (due to the fact that the developper / user ratio is getting more and more skewed to the user side whereas 'in the golden days' anyone using Linux was a developper).
But well, this comes also from being in contact with Wine users everyday on #WineHQ :-)

Correction: anyone using Linux either was a developer, or proficient enough with computers to want to become one.. ;)
