Hello all. :-) I already introduced myself a while ago when I was writing my proposal, and I'm very pleased to see that it was accepted! I'm a 3rd year comp sci student at the University of St Andrews in sunny(!) Scotland. Looking forward to getting to work on Wine, although I've got exams and a junior honours project to get finished first, alas! I've got various ideas floating around my head and have figured out how I think I'm going to start tackling the project, so hopefully I'll be all ready to go when exams are out of the way.
Cheers,

Hi there
I'm from Spain and I'm supposed to hack DirectPlay support up until wine can fully run at least GTA2 multiplayer out of the box, but I hope to have time enough to give some love to other dplay games. I'll try not to have too much fun in the testing phases, I promise :)
I still have to get some exams done before embracing the sleepless nights of passionate coding (and/or swearing against msdn), but things are going faster than expected and I hopefully will be free of urgent duties in two or three weeks.
Hope not to break anything Over and out Ismael

Hello Wine world, my name is Adam Petaccia, and this summer I will be working on Wine's GDI+ implementation, so more applications can work "out of the box". I am currently a student at the University of North Carolina, Greensboro (US), and look forward to getting to coding, once I'm done with those pesky exams.
Its exciting to see how far Wine has come (I remember running Starcraft as root with nice -20 just so that the game could be somwhat playable -- thank [deity] we don't have to do that now) and I look forward to making Wine even greater.
Hi,
I'll be working on msxml3.dll. I'm planning to implement SAX (Simple API for XML) and fix as much bugs related to this dll as I can. My main goal is to fix part of 8945 bug related to msxml.
I'm from Poland. I'm a second year computer science student at University of Wroclaw. I was working on Wine's implementation of OleView two years ago (as SoC project). I'm really excited about this year project and looking forward for coding.
Cheers, Piotr
