I try to do that more and more.

However in this case there are some logical relation between the patches.

Every issue winapi_check reports results in either a patch
to winapi_check (winapi_check.diff) or a patch to some
source file (winapi_checked.diff).

So if you wish to find any possible misstake I might have done
your really should read both.

OK, this time they might be not so useful to read both since they
are almost 100% percent independant but that is not always 
when I do the winapi_check update.

I remember. :-)

Speaking of which:
Why not, instead of complaining to people who doesn't
(or only partly) listens, write some sort of mail "filter"
the reformats the mail to one or more mail of a more
appropriate format. Inline attachments and that sort of things...

Then we could have a wine-patches-filtered mailing list
for people that like the patches in a specific format.

Can't argue, hand hurts. But histroy shows that you like to argue for no
good reason :). Case in point:

:)))

But, IT DOES NOT MATTER if they are dependant. My patches are 99%
of the time dependant, and I still send them as separate emails. 
Do you want me do send an email with 15 patches in them???

If they are depemdant (and that's not obvious), just add a small
blurb in the comment section (the one before the ChangeLog).
It's that simple.

Oh, come on man, this _is_ silly. You are the only one sending
multiple patches per email, for crying out loud! :)
