I also saw something the other day about source code for .Net being released as a "learning tool". Of course, all of this is in a bid to get Office XML approved as an ISO standard. They don't just give stuff away

The performance of WineD3D depends on the application and display drivers. It is hard to say where we are losing the performance and whether it is WineD3D which has to be blamed. To find out where the performance is lost you need to profile the app using e.g. sysprof or oprofile. Then you can see where the time is spent. Typically we don't spend a lot of time in Wine code but outside Wine in
