(Get the code!)
Colleagues, come on! There's no point in writing here blaming wine devs - their position had been made clear years ago and it looks like there are no signs of the possible changes in the near feature.
Fact is that wine devs team simply don't like pulse and that's it. Instead of following the way to be more compatible with mainstream linux distros they prefer to turn the world upside down and disagree to call Fedora, Mandriva, Ubuntu and all other distros using Pulse out there "the mainstream".
Trying to argue with them leads to the threats that "this bug will be closed as INVALID, end of discussion".
So take it simple: they don't like pulse, they don't use pulse, they have no intentions to support pulse in Wine. They simply refuse to do it, and that's it.
The only way one may take to get proper support of pulse in wine is to do it himself out of the official wine tree. It would be more productive to spend the energy on maintenance of the winepulse patch instead of writing here trying to persuade wine devs that their software should run on the linux desktops well.
