Hi all,<br>
<br>
GSoC is starting this year and, if we want to have good
applications, we<br>
need to update our proposals. Usually the most attention is
directed<br>
into adding new ones, while we keep obviously bad (or just bad
IMO)<br>
proposals on the page. I'm planning to remove following
project proposals:<br>
<br>
Security - implement sandboxing<br>
Theming - Implement Wine theming support<br>
NTDLL - support performance registry keys<br>
Winelib Aware Scons (or cmake)<br>
Cleanup Winemenubuilder to support generating Application
Bundles on Mac<br>
OS X<br>
Wine-based application virtualization<br>
<br>
If someone knows a reason to not remove them, please reply.<br>
<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
Jacek<br>

excellent desktop integration.</div>

I'm not sure how it helps with desktop integration actually, you're
probably referring to using host system looking alike<br>
control theme to be used by win32 application?<br>
<br>
The problem with getting this work properly is that you need to
touch loader most likely (so kernel32/ntdll), duplicate all user32
controls inside comctl32 including tests, make them register
themselves when application really wants to. And of course fix
uxtheme bugs. So it's quite a lot of work, and not really explored
part actually.<br>
<br>
And in my opinion this accomplishes nearly nothing, except one nice
thing - some applications want new comct32 v6 controls that are
formerly implemented in user32, and it's not right to fix that in
user32 code now, cause native user32 doesn't provide new buttons
styles for example. It's not really related to theming support, it's
all about use32/comctl32v6 coexisting. <br>
