although i think it's a pretty neat idea, i dont think it belongs in the normal tree ... if it was, users would just come to us everytime wine and/or the app crashed and frankly, i dont want that crap maybe something the breakmygentoo guys could pick up ? an external rsync tree which is just windows apps you can run under wine would be pretty cool -mike -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
