-------------------------------------------------------------
-As of Oct 1997 -
-
-General:
-
- * We need to do InsertMenuItem32[AW] and then code most of the other
- inserting function in terms of this. Without this, we cannot support
- all the new extended menus. Not hard, but slightly big.
-
- * TrueType, .FON rasterizer.
-
- * No thread/process scheduling support in Win32 code.
-
- * Very alpha printing code. [john@division.co.uk]
-
- * Extremely alpha Win95 interface code.
-
- * No OLE2 and OLE32 support (including OLE2 interfaces etc.).
-
- * No MS Video support (perhaps interface with xanim, don't hold
- your breath for this one).
-
- * COMDLG32 support not complete yet.
+For information on how to post a useful bug report, please
+read documentation/bugs.sgml.
- * No COMMCTRL/COMCTL32 support.
-
- * No manual pages describing the various Windows calls.
- - You can find information about most of the Win32 API calls
- on the www.microsoft.com (go to 'search').
-
-Miscellaneous:
-
- * Missing menu separators in BCW, other programs.
-
- * BCW fails with "bad class 'MessageWindow'" message.
-
- * MIRC is unable to show 'Options' dialog.
-
- * Tab switching in MIRC 'Setup' dialog leaks memory.
-
- * nBytesWidth in CURSORICONINFO is bogus for some bpp
- (doesn't reflect the fact that bits are packed and 16-bit aligned).
-
- * Progman and AOL complain about being unable to convert bitmaps
- (probably because of bytes width stuff).
+This is intended to be a place where you should look first if
+you want to contribute to Wine development.
- * Netscape displays partially downloaded inline graphics with
- wrong offsets. Bitmap is missing in the splash-window.
+Wine is still alpha software and is very incomplete.
- * Text alignment problems in Word and Write (variable pitch fonts).
+If you want to help Wine project you can:
- * Font mapper weights are rather crude.
+ * visit Bugzilla (http://bugs.winehq.com/) for
+ list of existing bugs. Metabug 406 lists bugs which are
+ reasonably simple to fix even for someone new to Wine.
+ Have a look at it and choose subject you are insterested in.
+ http://wine.codeweavers.com/bugzilla/showdependencytree.cgi?id=406
+ You are also welcome to help with Bugzilla - add new bugs, confirm,
+ remove duplicates, test fixes, etc.
- * "Cursor XXXX has more than 1 bpp!"
+ * create unit tests for Windows API
- * SGI window manager treats Wine windows as topmost.
+ * contribute to the Wine documentation
- * Write shows blank space instead of Paintbrush OLE1 object ( GetDIBits()? ).
+ * subscribe wine-devel, wine-user mailing lists, participate
+ in the discussions
- * AllocCSToDSAlias() shouldn't alloc alias for the same segment multiple
- times.
+ * run Windows applications, port open-source Windows applications
+ to Wine, fix bugs you found, enter bugs you can't fix to Bugzilla.
+ Enter information you discovered to the
+ Wine Application Database (http://appdb.codeweavers.com/).
