Do the apps you are trying to compile build under MinGW? If so, all you have to do to the makefiles (in theory) is this: -CC=gcc -CXX=g++ -RC=windres +CC=winegcc +CXX=wineg++ +RC=wrc If it does not work like this, please report back on the list. On the other hand if they don't build under MinGW currently, your best bet is to get them to build & run under MinGW first, and try to port them to winelib after that. -- Dimi.

See http://www.winehq.com/hypermail/wine-devel/2002/05/0426.html. At the time, the decision was to _not_ change it everywhere, because of all the external references to winehq.com (and it would double the amount of spam Alexandre receives).

For historic reasons winehq.com is stamped in many places on the Net, and changing it now to point to winehq.org will introduce only mess and headaches for users. -- Dmitry.

If we want to translate documentation, let's stick to the README for now. All other documentation is badly out of date, and translating it just compounds the problem of outdated/wrong documentation. -- Dimi.
