Good question.  Last time this came up, the answer was recorded here:

http://kerneltraffic.osmirror.nl/wine/wn20021011_139.html#3

I don't know if that's correct still, but it's a start.
Can you update the doc once you get it worked out?

Thanks,
Dan

For references, take a look at the tests directory under msvcrtd. It's
one of the simpler tests.

like you no longer add "SUBDIRS = tests" to dlls/foo/Makefile.in.
Instead, add an entry to the TESTSUBDIRS variable in dlls/Makefile.in.

No, it isn't

Sure

Let's start with updating the documentation on updating the
documentation :-)

I see we have both the old sgml-based docs (which are now on
sourceforge) and the wiki.

I presume we are maintaining both (i.e. we have not obsoleted the docs).

So where do we send patches to the sgml these days?  Still to wine-
patches?

Then (I'm using urlmon as a model)- 
What's with the 'generated.c' autogenerated files?

Yes. They are complementary normally.

Yes, send them to wine-patches with a subject starting with 
'[WINEDOCS]'.

These contain extra (and interesting) tests generated by 
tools/winapi/winapi_test. However you don't need them to write or run 
your tests (and many dlls don't have a generated.c file).
