I've written a proposal for what my plan would be regarding implementation of Wine's dxdiag based on my own thoughts and the suggestions of other wine-devel list members. I plan to submit proposals for other projects as well but before I write them I'd like to get a better feel for what's expected (I did look at PGSQL's tips as per the GSOC wiki page).
Anyways, it's attached. Please let me know what you think.
A lot of the work is already done: http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=22871. There's a stub dxdiag.exe already in wine, and last year some students from UCLA coded a relatively functional dxdiag.exe. It's not yet in wine, though.
I don't think it would take a GSOC amount of work to get it cleaned up and into wine, but I may be overestimating the quality of the code. Regardless, I'm sure others have more to say.
