re: WINEGATE.DLL: Wine gateway to native Unix libraries

Very interesting. I'd been suggesting to ISVs that they create a single winelib dll and conditionally load that if present, but winegate.dll might be an appealing alternative. I don't think this really brings up any security considerations but it is a reminder that Windows programs under Wine have access to the entire Linux system just like Linux programs do. btw nice name, but it pulls up 7 million hits for me, not sure what you mean by "google doesn't reveal any other uses of the name". - Dan

Wine is an oddball when it comes to win32 program with the excessive lengths it goes to, to avoid using windows.h. I am starting to think even avoiding it internally like we do causes more harm than good as far as being source compatible with MSVC. -- Steven Edwards "There is one thing stronger than all the armies in the world, and that is an idea whose time has come." - Victor Hugo

What most likely happens is that MoveFile should be a noop if source and destination file names are the same, and in that case 'MoveFileA(source, source);' is enough to test. -- Dmitry.

It appears that GetNamedSecurityInfoExA signature doesn't match the MSDN/PSDK one. Also it's a common practice to simultaneously add both A and W versions, and add prototypes to an appropriate .h file. -- Dmitry.

My biggest motivation for requiring weekly status updates is that in the past years I had a hard time following the GSoC projects I was not involved with directly. At WorldForge, we required weekly reports to the mentor at first and then decided that the weekly reports should go to the developer mailing list. That kept everybody informed what was going on. Also, if the weekly reports don't only include "that's what I did last week" but also "this is my plan for the next week", students can get early feedback if whatever they're planning to do next looks like a bad idea to some other developer. It also helps integrating the students in the community, as they're not only talking to their mentor.
