I have seen patches in that bug report to add the firewall stubs. Is there any problem with those patches? Or, more to the point, is there any way I could contribute? I am not too familiar with the firewall API or Marteen's work, but I am sure that can be mitigated with some study :) I might have

Wine Profiling

Hi, I'd like to know what's the procedure being used to profile Wine's code. More specifically, I want to try to track down slowdowns in some applcations, which requires profiling to identify where the bottlenecks are. Are there any specific procedures or utilities to instrument and generate p

Isn't this just a matter of #ifdefs? I don't really think Wine should stick to the lowest common denominator. I do think that such optimizations should be very well documented and in sync with the original code. Stephen On 10/8/06, Roderick Colenbrander <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I was readi

I like the deadline idea, but I do think they've got this already, just not in terms of working applications, but subsystems. For the *weekly* application list, who is going to compile it? Wine is not Microsoft, therefore they do not have access to something along the lines of Microsoft's Compati
