'cause Amsn is not really good with the new msnProtocole so the best way to have perfectely msn on linux is to have msn 2009 (or 2011 but i prefer the 2009 version) on wine !! sorry for my poor english

That is not a good answer man!!!
Amsn doesn't work perfectely, msnProtocole change lot of time
Here you can choose the best option for msn on linux (http://tips-linux.net/en/linux-ubuntu/linux-software/linux-internet/msn-linux) .

But to the larger question of why work on fixing bugs in the windows versions of apps that are also available for Linux: sometimes it's worth it. For instance, if they're open source and have unit test suites, or if the bug reports are really good and free trials are available.
