Completely nosy of me, so feel free to tell me to piss off, but I've been wondering if you get paid to work on Wine for a while now, or whether you just make far more efficient use of your spare time than I do :)
I wish I got paid :) No, I don't. In fact, I haven't made a dime working on Wine. It would be nice to, so I can put more time in it, but that's another story. I am a freelancer, and I had a bit more time on my hands last year, but starting Jan 2003, things changed, and I will not have as much time available (in fact, if I get 2h/day to work on Wine I'll be happy). In other words, things will progress a lot slower from now on. :(

If your'e now a freelancer with less free time, does that not mean you are now a freelancer making more money? That is, generally speaking, a good thing.

As someone who has just made the jump myself (quite my daytime job and became a freelancer, effective this Thursday), seeing someone else who has been a freelancer and has succeeded in both working on wine for a year AND finding a fuller time job is a very encouraging.
Good luck, either way.

Well, yeah... :)

Same to you. It's really just a matter of obsession how much time you spend on Wine, irrespective of full-time or contract :)
