Application Database todo updated and open call for new developers

2007-01-04 Thread Chris Morgan

I've updated the Application Database todo and sorted the list
according to each item's difficulty. You can find the todo list at
http://wiki.winehq.org/AppdbInfo   This list is by no means complete
so if you have an idea for a new entry feel free to email it to the
AppDB mailing list at [EMAIL PROTECTED] or just update the wiki page.

I also wanted ask that people interested in hacking on the AppDB take
a look at the todo list if they might be interested in getting
involved with AppDB development. The php code that runs the AppDB is
available from the winehq cvs server and I'm available to mentor
anyone interested in getting started hacking on the code.

We've had some new developers and I wanted to thank Alexander Sørnes
for his recent contributions to improve several areas of the AppDB
that users see most. And of course thanks to all of the other
contributors that have helped to develop the AppDB and the AppDB
administrators that process all of the new submissions that come in
each day.

Chris

I can help on this, if it's needed, and as long as I aren't alone.

I've tried to volunteer before, but no one ever answered.  If more help is
needed I volunteer again.  :)

Re: Re: Application database

Can you add me as a maintainer of the appdb as well?  I'm often helping people in irc 
so I deal a lot with people trying to run all kinds of different apps, would be useful 
to start filling in some information on them so we have some kind of record of how 
well they run under wine.

Thanks,
Chris

Yup, I am. MySQL?

BTW, the screenshots category with one screenshots.xml file instead of a 
seperate directory with single description files - patch. Have you looked at 
it?

Based on the size of the submission queue right now, it does not look
like anyone has approved an app for awhile now.

We may need a few more volunteers to maintain the appdb.

I'm also curious to find out if I opened up the appdb code base, (i.e
made a cvs module for it), if anyone would be interested in improving
it. I haven't patched a single line of code in it for over a year.

Honestly, I've been worried about opening it up, as I have never had the
time to go through and look for vulnerabilities and so forth.

Oh its alright, I know it was a retarded email.

In any case I'm glad to see that the appdb is drawing some interest.  I'd be 
willing to help out as well.  Frank, maybe you could come up with a task list 
for the appdb that we could post off of winehq.

windows application+Database

2004-02-13 Thread saravanan



Hai all,
  I would like to know is it possible to run 
'a windows application which uses a database' in linux using the WINE S/w. 
I have got an application "English Tutor" 
developed for windows ( Developed using Flash software). It uses the MS Access 
database & also it will run only if the CD is present in the system. I 
want to make it work in Linux.I tried to run the installation program directly 
from the CD using wine. But it showed an error something like " Activex 
component can't create object".
 Do anybody has any idea. Please 
reply
