The examples given on the GSOC wiki pages (basic desktop/screen resizing, general network information, and font details) would be good applets for me to implement, but I would also be interested in working on some other applets, such as an Add/Remove Programs applet, or a Multimedia applet.
What I and the other Ubuntu UI people would really like to see is the ability to uninstall Wine programs from within gnome-app-install (The Gnome applet the user interacts with after selecting Applications->Add/Remove).
The UI is a fairly intuitive step - just add a "Windows Applications" category and list the installed Wine apps on the right. Once that's done, we don't need a special Wine program for uninstalling anymore, since we can expand the functionality in a similar place where the user could reasonably expects to find it.
As for what you'll need to do this done, uninstalling applications from the command line isn't yet supported, though I believe someone else is working on that through reg.exe.
Thanks, Scott Ritchie
