My mind hasn't changed - but I don't think the mind of my employer (who
"owns" the WineX sources) has changed much either, and there are some
conflicts of interest between them. When I say "it won't be anything
major", it's because my employer probably wouldn't like it, not because I
personally wouldn't want to. But he's probably OK with small pieces here
and there, and I'm OK with any code release as long as it will go to
ReWind too, not just Wine.
