K, Photoshop 7 works good like it used to with 0.9.2 now, no visible difference yet. I think I'll unsubscribe from wine-devel on this email and sign up with my other email, it won't cause any cofusion, will it? Oops, sorry Hiji, I meant to send it to the list and sent it to you. Second time I've done this. Argh.

Back in the day, I wrote an essay about this; it's online at http://kegel.com/remedy/ in particular, http://www.usdoj.gov/atr/cases/ms_tuncom/major/mtc-00028571.htm I now think my essay was naive, but hey, I was young :-) It would be interesting to see the complaints sent to the Technical Committee ( http://www.thetc.org/ ) but I doubt they're public.

As others have noted, the Windows API is not completely public nor particularly well-defined. This makes things harder, but it's not really the main obstacle. Here are a few things a judge could order Microsoft to do that would help Wine: * order them to break up into two companies, one for operating systems and .net, one for everything else * donate gobs of cash to Wine * offer a perpetual, transferrable, royalty-free, GPL-compatible license for its protocols and data formats * support ODF in Microsoft Office That last item is kind of indirect. It would make it much easier for everybody to switch to OpenOffice, which would make it much easier for everybody to switch to Linux, which is the whole point of Wine. - Dan -- Wonder why Aunt Tilly still won't use Linux?

Appdb thoughts
by Dan Kegel 15 Feb '06

15 Feb '06

Hi all, I've been using the Appdb a fair bit in the last couple months, maintaining a couple apps and their bug links, and doing some quick testing of apps I'm not the appdb maintainer for. Mostly I find the appdb adequate and usable, but I've noticed a few things that bug me. Here's a quick dump of what's on my mind: 1) The top 10 platinum, gold, and silver lists on the front page is helpful but appear to be manually maintained. It'd be helpful if there was a way to use the ratings while browsing or searching the appdb. 2) The links between bugzilla and the appdb are great. I really like seeing the list of bugs for each app. But the app db's orientation towards detailed rich text info about apps makes me wonder. I often do quick testing of apps for obvious bugs (like crashes) without really getting to know the app, and I don't feel qualified to say much about the app; I just want to link a bug to it. But the app db gets upset unless I fill in all sorts of info about the app. And unless I'm willing to be the app db maintainer for an app, that info is going to quickly get out of date. So I'd like a way to create an app db entry without filling in any info about the app besides a bug number. 3) It'd be nice if, when entering bugs in bugzilla, the web interface let me enter an appdb app id somehow. Not sure how to do that nicely. Anyway, that's what's on my mind. Tony disagrees with me about #2; he thinks once I've filed a bugzilla report for an app, I have everything I need to create a fully populated appdb entry. I can't quite put my finger on why I disagree with him. Comments, anyone? Thanks, Dan -- Wine for Windows ISVs: http://kegel.com/wine/isv
