Wine-devel,
Still looking at my options for summer projects and I thought this
might be a good one
that would work towards my goal of improving gaming for folks. As
always, comments
and critiques are very appreciated.
I would request that, in addition to commenting on the general idea,

OK -- it would definitely not make sense to redo the work if the tests
are completed to satisfaction

I've written a proposal for what my plan would be regarding
implementation of Wine's dxdiag based on my own thoughts and the
suggestions of other wine-devel list members. I plan to submit
proposals for other projects as well but before I write them I'd like

I've done a little bit of research on Direct3D. Having seen how easy
the tutorial at http://www.directxtutorial.com/ is, I think I'd like
to propose the following: a 3D benchmarking program that would allow
users and developers to determine what aspects of WineD3D are the
slowest so that they can b

Well that's good to hear. If that can help the Wine hackers w
Firstly, thanks to Roderick for the prompt reply. I had a feeling that
my ideas were a little much. :-)
That being said, I've again gone over the list of possible projects on
the Summer of Code page and one that particularly piqued my interest
was "Direct3D - Conformance / Performance / Interact
Hello wine-devel,
My name is John and I'm a computer science major at the University of
Minnesota, Twin Cities campus. I've made quite a bit of use of Wine before
(and I have purchased Crossover) and I'm inspired to give something back to
