-------------------------------------------------------------
-As of Jun 1998 -
-
-General:
-
- * TrueType, .FON rasterizer.
-
- * Incomplete thread/process scheduling support in Win32 code.
-
- * Threading for non Linux systems completely missing. (might use
- LWPs in Solaris, FreeBSD? NetBSD? SCO?)
-
- * Very alpha printing code using win16 drivers.
-
- * Very alpha internal Postscript driver. [h.davies1@physics.ox.ac.uk]
-
- * Extremely alpha Win95 interface code.
- * No OLE2 and OLE32 support (including OLE2 interfaces etc.).
- (started work on pidl-handling, IShellFolders IEnumIdLists
- and SH* functions juergen.schmied@metronet.de)
-
- * No MS Video support. [just started, marcus@jet.franken.de]
-
- * COMDLG32 support not complete yet [bertho@akhphd.au.dk]
-
- * COMMCTRL/COMCTL32 support in progress [ekohl@abo.rhein-zeitung.de].
+For information on how to post a useful bug report, please
+read documentation/bugs.sgml.
- * 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').
-
- * A lot of the extensions to the GDI that were introduced with Win32 are
- not supported at all or only in a very rudimentary way. (World transforms,
- arc direction, GM_ADVANCED to name but a few)
-
-Miscellaneous:
-
- * 16-bit Eudora 1.5.2 goes into recursion trying to display
- a horizontal scrollbar (SetScrollPos() artifact).
- Windows95 telnet.exe and NT 3.51 telnet.exe exhibit the same behaviour.
-
- * mIRC 'commands' menu stays on top and will not refresh.
-
- * mIRC is unable to show 'Options' dialog.
-
- * Tab switching in mIRC 'Setup' dialog stops erasing background
- after a random number of repetitions.
-
- * 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).
-
- * Netscape displays partially downloaded inline graphics with
- wrong offsets.
+This is intended to be a place where you should look first if
+you want to contribute to the development of Wine.
- * Text alignment problems in Word and Write (variable pitch fonts).
+Wine is still considered alpha software and is still incomplete.
- * Font mapper weights are rather crude.
+If you want to help the Wine project you can:
- * "Cursor XXXX has more than 1 bpp!"
+ * visit Bugzilla (http://bugs.winehq.org/) for
+ a list of existing bugs. You are also welcome to
+ help with Bugzilla - add new bugs, confirm,
+ remove duplicates, test fixes, etc.
- * SGI window manager treats Wine windows as topmost.
+ * create unit tests for Windows API
- * Write shows blank space instead of Paintbrush OLE1 object ( GetDIBits()? ).
+ * contribute to the Wine documentation
- * AllocCSToDSAlias() shouldn't alloc alias for the same segment multiple
- times.
+ * subscribe to wine-devel, wine-user mailing lists, participate
+ in the discussions
-Where to look in source files:
+ * 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/).
- * grep for FIXME in the source files.
