What usability? I've been reading the mailing list for a few months now,
and the only extent of 'usability' discussions for wine has been over
whether or not experienced linux geeks will be confused by options in
winecfg. That's not usability. That just means it's easy for hardcore
users to figure things out without having to look for docs. The work
being done in winecfg is both good and necessary, but it's still a long
ways away from wine being 'usable' to non-geeks. When all of the binary
packages (heck, any) on winehq.org have .Desktop files so that winecfg
is at least accessible without the use of a terminal, and you can launch
a wine application that asks the user what windows app they would like
to run or make shortcut to so they don't have to use terminal there
either, /then/ maybe there can be some usability discussion.
And then maybe it would be appropriate to remove winetools.
