Aside from political stuff, I guess we all agree we need traction in this feature. If I got it correctly, Maarten has a fully functional patch, but it can't be reviewed because of its size and non-technical reasons already enough discussed. Also, Andrew seems to be working on the same thing, but apart from Maarten, having unnecessary additional work.
So there are two steps needed: 1.Small, punctual patches from Maarten, which can be reviewed one at a time, be accepted and improve both Pulse support state and Maarten reputation. Maarten said he already worked in splitting the patch before, so there's already a way to go. 2.Willingness from Wine devs to review Maarten patches. Andrew already said that's OK, so no issue. Is that road possible?
