This is not the intent of an Open Source project like Wine. The object is to get your name in 'lights' and help fix a problem or implement new code. Others then my modify it or even correct problems you did not envision when you produced your code.
This directly violates the spirit and intent of the LGPL. Since Wine exists under that license model, this would not be very friendly. Again, the object is to make a project work better or, in this case, work more like Microsoft Windows through a third party Application Programming Interface which works with the underlying UNIX/Linux operating system.
I think you missed my point.
The thing is, I don't want people to be able to recompile their own version of a project of mine, because I want to be the only place where people get the binaries. There's also the problem of backspaceware but it's another story.
Now, when I said "can't-distribute-but-can-be-used-for-WINE license", what I really meant was that, I'd give the necessary raw code for integration into WINE (it'd have to be modified a lot), but once it gets into WINE, it's WINE code and goes by the WINE license. And therefore, if somebody wants to take that BACK from WINE, and make their own TDEmu.dll, or anything else for that matter, I don't care at all.
