Adopt a patch?

[Michael Ost]

I have a patch for a bug that I won't be able to shepherd through the 
patch submission process for some time. The bug is that 
GetFileVersionInfoSize doesn't work for files with path names longer 
than 128 characters.

The patch includes an untried unit test. And I've confirmed the behavior 
in Windows Vista.

We use an older version of Wine, and my boss won't let me take the time 
right now to rework the patch for the newest Wine sources. If someone 
wants to they can take this patch, tweak it for the new wine, update it 
to wine-patch requirements and push it through the system.

Otherwise I'll submit as soon as I can.

Cheers,

Michael Ost

You should probably create a new/update an existing bug in wine
bugzilla and attach your patch there.
