      That’s literally how it works w/ WINE development. Here’s something very related to it on the WINE forums:

      The source code was leaked, not released. Using it would be illegal, which is why I have deleted the links you included in your post. Do not post such things again, or you will be banned.

      It’s a poison pill for WINE to use leaked source code, so the WINE developers have a strict policy against it. I’m guessing most other FOSS projects in the space feel the same way.

        I didn’t say use the source. Just see how it works. If you’re trying to emulate the windows api — which is what wine is doing — it helps to have insight.

          “Insight” is a liability. The only way this works is if it’s done in a “clean room” setup, which is probably more work than not having any access.
