Hello all,
I'll use this thread to post information and ask questions regarding my GSoC project.
First there's a wiki which aggregates some information and lists tasks I'm working on: http://lfzawacki.heroku.com/wine/published/HomePage Then there's a github repo: https://github.com/lfzawacki/wine-joysticks
In the repository you'll find the different tools I'll be implementing. They can be easily built and tested, even before they make it into wine. At the moment there's an intial version of the command line joystick tester. This tool is useful for listing connected joysticks, testing if they work correctly in wine, testing axis remapping, watching for dinput trace messages, etc... It's also the basis for the joystick testing GUI.
I'll start cleaning up, splitting this code and commiting it to wine next week. For now I'll make a similar tool to this one that tests force feedback. I'll try to make it in the style of the Linux fftest program, but using the dinput interfaces so that a user can test the differences.
Cheers, Lucas

Any reason you're not using the wine wiki for that?

This is a self-hosted wiki because a lot of the information I tend to write there is ephemereal, since I use it mostly as a way to document my progress and organize myself.
I suppose I should transfer some of the useful content to the wine wiki eventually. I'll put this in my TODO list :)
