Yeah, that server tends to suck. Not sure what's been causing them problems but "high availability" doesn't seem to be a priority. My goal is to move them over when Jeremy completes changes to the web site. There's a lot of problems doing that before then, mostly having to do with integrating nicely with Jeremy's stuff. For instance: 1) All the graphics need to be optimized - they're pretty bad right now. And if I have to do that then I might as well make sure they're the right size. (I picked a rather arbitrary size, that probably needs to be adjusted.) 2) The list needs to be cut down. I think it's about twice as large as a it really needs to be. 3) And of course the HTML (XML? PHP?) needs to be written for them. None of those are things I want to do twice. -brian

Screenshots?
by Mike Hearn March 5, 2003

March 5, 2003

Hi, Lately I've been finding myself refer people to the preview screenshots page hosted at users.theshell.com, and was wondering when they'd be moved over to winehq.org? In particular, for some reason that server seems pretty unreliable from where I am, roughly half the time I try to access it, it appears to be offline. Does anybody know the status of the new website, or moving the screenshots to the current one? -- Mike Hearn <m.hearn(a)signal.qinetiq.com> QinetiQ - Malvern Technology Center

New conformance test for user32.dll
by Ferenc Wagner March 5, 2003

March 5, 2003

Hello, I put together a new test file for dlls/user/tests (find attached). It tests undocumented behaviour (at least I couldn't find a word), but one of my apps depend on it. It's a first try, please have a look at it (I tried to follow the Developers' Guide) and tell me what I should do. I compiled a previous version (some code rearrangement happened since then) with MSVC, it ran fine on XP, ME and Win95, ie. all tests passed. In short: a LISTBOX window can have the LBS_NOSEL style option. For me it seems it's only about appearance and nothing more. But Wine implements it in a more meaningful way, unfortunately... I'd like to be sure about what's correct before patching the implementation. Looking forward to your comments: Feri. Insert listbox.c into CTESTS in Makefile{,.in} to run:
