My project so far has gone fairly well, and I'd say I'm currently just a little ahead of schedule, which I'm pleased about. The first part of the project was to get the Control Panel working in the shell namespace, and it turned out that a lot of the work had already been done, it just wasn't glued together properly. It took me a little while to figure out what needed doing, but I managed to work it out and it made it into Wine 1.1. :-) I'm now moving onto developing some new control panel applets, and looking at ways to improve winecfg. I've been working on an Add/Remove Programs applet for the past week or so, which is now more or less complete, and will likely be submitted to wine-patches soon. I'm also thinking about what I'm going to do with winecfg, with my thinking that the bits that are not configurable on a per-application basis (desktop appearance and sound, mainly) can be moved into/reimplemented in new control panels. So that'll be my main focus over the next few weeks. The biggest challenge for me now is probably working out a "work plan", and making sure I set targets for myself, to ensure I can try to get as much done and use my time efficiently. Other than that, I've learned a lot about the general process of Wine development, and have quite enjoyed things so far. The majority of my code can be found at http://repo.or.cz/w/wine/gsoc_cpanel.git. Cheers, -- Owen Rudge http://www.owenrudge.net/
