Hello!
My previous application[1] turned out to be a total failure, hence making a completely different one. My proposal this time goes as follows: Write various D3D tests, mostly focusing on ones that can be later re-used for dxdiag in one way or another. Along with writing a tool that would allow users to easily test if d3d and wgl / opengl work & are set up properly.
Info about me (copied over from [1]):
My name is Gediminas Jakutis. I study Informatics Engineering [bachelor / undergraduate] at Kaunas University of Technology, second year. I wish to try out GSoC for the first time by helping to improve Wine. My primary programming language is C. I am self-taught in C, but I believe my knowledge is good enough. I am quite familiar with Wine - I use it and experiment with it for many years now. I am subscribed to and read wine-devel for more than a year. I browse through Wine's source code once in a while out of curiosity. Thus, I have some knowledge of its structure. Sadly, I have not written any patches for Wine yet. Mostly due to lack of confidence.

Thank You for Your time Gediminas Jakutis
