Please feel free to stop by #winehackers on irc.freenode.net and introduce yourself. There's usually many small areas that need attention, and it would be excellent if you could find one to pick up. Again, don't be afraid to ask questions in the channel about where you can start hacking - that's why we're there, and usually there's something simple like writing stub functions that's a great way to get started. Thanks, Scott Ritchie

shdocvw: would it be allright to pretend succes in IWebBrowser2::Stop?

by Louis. Lenders

Hi, i try run an app that bails out because WebBrowser_Stop returns E_NOTIMPL. Just like another app i already filed a bug for (http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9895) it expects ERROR_SUCCESS. According to MSDN this function "Cancels a pending navigation or download, and stops dynamic page elements, such as background sounds and animations". My question is, would it be ok to just pretend ERROR_SUCCESS (as i think now), or would there be any unwanted side effects for other apps that use this function,and do we have to wait for a real implementation (maybe Jacek has a clue?) Regards Louis

IMAM HOSSAIN > > Hello Imam :) welcome to Wine, you can certainly help. i'd recommend seeing this page for some guidance: http://www.winehq.org/site/contributing also, what i think is easier to get started in wine is doing translations to your own language, it helps you see the structure of the project while doing something very useful to your community in wine. if you want to dive deeper then choose an application you like and start debugging, see what problems it has and try to solve them. best regards.

I prefer the way it is now. There are 4 other languages before the respective language so it comes in only 5th. And changes to one of the 4 languages before it won't make the score of the language change. > --- > transl/php/index.php | 2 +- > 1 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-) bye michael

There's only one checkbox, does that disable all email? If so, maybe we need another checkbox that just disables unmaintained app email.
