I never really started pursuing Winapt. Most I got to was the initial
planning documentation:

http://svn.berlios.de/svnroot/repos/winapt/winapt/trunk/docs/design/

Anyway, it is my intention to start working on this soon. I have a few
loose ends to sort out before that with my other open-source
endeavours.

Hey Shlomi,

I think you have the wrong Seth. It seems the other Seth's email is
[e-mail]. Mine is [e-mail] . I've never made an inquiry
about winapt, although it seems a very interesting concept and I'm going to
read over the documentation now. You probably saw some of my recent question
on a win to lin wrapper, and though I was the same person. Interesting
enough there happens to be another Seth who trolls the Wine mailing list!
