Patches are greatly appreciated and should be submitted to the
Submitting a patch for inclusion in Wine is pretty simple.
Basically all you have to do is send the patch to the
wine-patches mailing list
(<ulink url="http://www.winehq.com/dev.shtml#ml">http://www.winehq.com/dev.shtml#ml</ulink>). Also see this page for
a description of what happens to submitted patches.
(<ulink url="http://www.winehq.com/dev.shtml#ml">http://www.winehq.com/dev.shtml#ml</>).
Still there are a couple of recommendations about the patch format
and all so it's best to read our page describing <ulink
url="http://www.winehq.com/site/sending_patches">how to submit
patches</>. This will also give you more details about the whole
process and in particular to what will happen to your patch once
submitted.

Winelib. The IDE actually uses a combination of QT and Winelib
which would not have been possible to achieve using only Wine.
The generated applications however do not depend on Wine in
any way.
