Status of USB patches?

[Scott Ritchie]

I wanted to experiment with these, but I'm not sure of their current
state.  Do they still apply cleanly?  Are they on track for eventual
inclusion?  I'm willing to help provide community testing by putting
them in a special package repository.

Thanks,
Scott Ritchie

A while back I sent some of the header files patches in, and now the
rest doesn't apply cleanly :-(. Sorry.

How bad is it? 
Are the changes required to make them "apply-able" fairly obvious?
Are Etersoft still involved and will follow it up or is it waiting for
another?

2 header files were out of date. More may have changed in the meanwhile.

For the header files, yes they were.

Here's the conversation I had with Alexander Morozov, the author of the patch:

Q: Are you still working on the Wine USB patches?

A: Yes, but not many.

Q: Are you still trying to get them accepted into Wine?

A: No.

...

Q: If you don't want to send patches to Wine, can I send them with
copyright assigned to both of us?

A: I have nothing against including USB patches in wine. You can try
to send them to wine mailing list.
