The thing is that the issue is not at our side. We do our best, we ask 
Wine nicely whether they could make it easy/easier for us to see who 
contributed which code.

We shouldn't have to dig through all Wine SVN commits just see who 
contributed which (piece of) code/patch.

Reasonable effort is what it's about.
