I wanted to contact Mike McCormack from the WinE developer team, but my email to mike@codeweavers.com bounced. If you could send me his new email address, I'd be very happy.
The question I wanted to ask Mr. McCormack is the following: Dear Mike,
I have found your code for generating proxy/stub-code at www.winehq.org. I wanted to ask where you have found a documentation of the functions used in this code (for example NdrProxyInitialize, NdrProxySendReceive, and so on). The MSDN doesn't provide any _valuable_ documentation for this function, so you surely have another source of documentation.
I'm not Mike, but I can probably answer this. Some of the knowledge about what NdrProxy* functions are supposed to do come from their use in MIDL-generated code. The rest of the knowledge comes from writing tests for the functions.
The code for generating proxy/stub code was probably arrived at by comparing the output against MIDL and trying to get it as close as possible.
