If someone does not like the coding style used in a source file based on wine its not like it
takes that much extra time to send a patch to wine-patches. As for a Platform SDK that can be used
by both projects I have suggested using the Wine headers as they are much more complete and
correct when you compare them to the Microsoft PSDK. 

If we randomly decide to reformat all of the sources we share with Wine (such as those in user32)
then its just going to make merges harder, adds more time to the development process and
discourages someone like Gunner that is doing a rather boring and important job of fixing bugs
spotted by regression tests.

Thanks
Steven
