Is there a time frame for the mountmgr.sys changes? Do I need to wait until Alexandre makes those changes or could I start working on this fix elsewhere and just move it later. I'm not really sure where to start and would love a little direction to get started. I don't think this is taking on too much for my first work on wine but I may be wrong on that too.
