The little bit I perused is very readable code.. like enjoyable to read. There are a lot of stylistic decisions that always felt "right" to me (general spacing, commenting style, horizontal alignment of equals signs, etc) -- but FWIW the first codebase I ever read (and probably imprinted on me indelibly) was DikuMUD, which is kind of in the same ballpark.

Anyways, very cool to see.

I... wouldn't confess to having perused illegally leaked Windows source, as it could taint you and make you ineligible to contribute to certain projects, like Wine.

That's Wine's problem, not mine.

if you read it but didn't confess, you'd still be ineligible, you'd be harming rather than helping wine if you did sneak in contributions.

What percentage of people reading HN do you think are actively contributing to WINE source? I'm going to go out on a limb and claim less than a tenth of a percent. And that, to me, is probably 10-100x too high of a threshold.

Wanting to and reading Windows source is fine. What isn't fine is the suggestion to not admit to it.
