wine users - Jun 2006 - limit to flood

May I ask whether it would be possible to create a wine list for fundamental 
problems of wine, leaving out all problems related to war, game, and so on, 
software? If I were interested in I would have taken Windows, while such 
e-mails are really flooding.

There are people interested to run a few scientific applications that are not 
yet available on linux or other unix OS (while expecting that a variant will 
become available on unix). They would like to concentrate the problems 
related to that. In contrast, problems of this kind find little attention, 
such as my posted question about handling by wine of OLE inserted graphics.

This is not to disregard (or even less to diminish) the interest of others. It 
is to keep correspondence within manegeable limits by separating 
fundamentally different interests.

Thank you

While I don't know wich war you are talking about, noone keeps you from
setting up a maling list on your own. I, however, advise against this as
fragmentation of information sources is just a waste of time.

You confuse 'giving little attention' and 'not knowing a
solution'. Why
should I post a followup just saying "I don't know."?

If you find the traffic here to high, you can use filtering.
