Each section strives to get > information as to how much progress was made in [installing/running] > and how hard it was to make that progress. From there we can generate > much more detailed and objective information about how well an > application runs. There are several ideas for how to determine an > overall 'rating' based on this information. > > There is all of this in much more detail on the wiki, just wanted to > give a brief summary. > > Theres enough information from the discussion to begin moving forward > with coding. Andrew Riedi and I thus far are the volunteers to begin > digging in. If anybody else is interested in getting their hands > dirty please do respond to this, and we'll work out how to get it > done. I imagine I'll setup and email a public .git (that isn't live > to winehq) for development. Stay tuned for that. > > The major open issue is still how to determine a rating and how to > display whatever rating. To decide this issue I think we should have > another meeting next Friday. > > What: Meeting #2 to discuss ratings: > Where: #winehackers on irc.freenode.net > When: 9PM UTC > > Comments? > >
Could we also have some discussion about improving the interface for admins/maintainers? I've found that the limitations of the current interface make it very difficult to do basic admin tasks. -- Rosanne DiMesio <[email protected]>
