Ok, I was under the impression that we want something in so that we can start working on it.

As this is the way you feel about the current wineboot, I think I'll go a completely new route. Please let me know your thoughts about the new proposed process.

In windows, some of the boot operations are done by the core "windows". These include wininit processing, win.ini, rename registry keys, and the services (can probably wait with these, however). Other things are performed by explorer when it first starts. These include the run and runonce keys.

What I'm thinking is incorporating the first group into the wine code itself (I'm thinking the server startup, synchroniously done). For the second group, create a wineboot program, and have a single option saying whether the wineserver should run it on startup or not.

Ideas, comments, opinions are welcome.

I was hoping you would clean it up, not simply resubmit Andi's
stuff. As discussed with Andi already, this thing is much too complex
and over-engineered. It has to be a simple application that doesn't
require user interaction or a dozen configuration parameters.
