So do you think it would be a good idea to put Putty.exe into the wine
package, because it's opensource?
Do you think it's wise, to package windows firefox together with wine, because
it's opensource?
So, I think there must be a line between: a source which is a framework for
running windows applications and windows applications, libraries itself.
Thinking about userland windows applications/libraries in a wine package, I,
as packager would remove them. They don't belong to the original source
package named wine.
