Wine Application Database

This software is listed in the wine database. As of Jun 09 there are no supermaintainer or maintainers. It has been tried on a very ancient version of Wine, that was before version 1.0. With the extraordinary advances wine has made, this software may now work, or at least install and work with a few minor workarounds. If you can add more recent test results for this software you will help anyone else wondering about how well this software works with wine.

Become a Maintainer

Have you considered volunteering to be an additional Maintainer for this software.

Regularly Submitting results for installing and running on the latest version of Wine makes a big difference for others considering using Wine. By looking at how well the software runs others can be encouraged to try it themselves and together you can make progress in finding workarounds. By testing the software you will also notice when something breaks and when you make a bug report, the bugzilla team will often point it out to the person who broke it. If you are slightly more technically minded, you are able to regularly compile wine and test it before each fortnightly release then you will catch breakages before each wine release.

Who can be a Maintainer? - anyone. no programming experience required.
What is required of a Maintainer? - not much, but you do make a real difference.

Wine_Appdb_Maintainer

A big advantage of being a maintainer is that as you quickly become familiar with installing and using wine with your software, you can have a direct hand in improving wine and your software. Many times you will find very handy tips posted by others and by posting a summary many benefit from your work. When you are asked a question you don't know, simply post in the wine-users forum and perhaps someone can help.

Just by being there, you make a difference. A maintainer quickly tests each monthly release of wine, and adds to the application database a rating of how good it runs.. gold/silver/bronze or garbage. Wine is constantly being improved, and occasionally something breaks. When you do spot a breakage, file a bug in bugzilla and if you want to try and fix it you can then post to the wine-devel mailing list for advice. However, if you have a little spare time (usually about 2 hours, in between doing other things) regression testing allows you to identify which patch caused the break. By filling out a bugzilla report, posting the name of the software, and the patch which broke it to the wine-devel mailing list, the developer who broke it can have a look at fixing it.

This often results in very quick fixes.

Further Help to Wine
If you are able to keep an eye out for bug reports for your software and adding a note to the bug report whether you can confirm if it is a real bug or not, you can help the bugzilla team and developers spend more time on improving Wine. For each Wine release, make a small note in the bug confirming whether it is still present or if it has been fixed.
