Want to help Wine project?

[phrostie]

I'm concentrating on short term issues at the moment.
I have both Intellicad 2000 and Intellicad 2001 running with wine.
icad2001 i have running with no copied or downloaded dlls.
this will make the distributing a working installation a little easier from a 
legal standpoint.  Intellicad2000 still requires additionall native dlls that 
do not come with the downloadable file.  

the good news is that Icad2001 does work this way, the bad news is that it is 
not as stable as with the native dlls.  i've posted a new copy of the how-to 
to my site at http://pfrostie.freeservers.com/cad-tastrafy/wine.page1.html 
the mirror still has the older version taylored for icad2000 at
http://www.dragon-designs.net/~cad-tastrafy/wine.page1.html

just so that there is not any confusion, the site is dedicated to cad and 
graphic tools, there is a Wine section but not all the application need wine 
to run on linux.

as always i'm not only open to feed back but i need it to help make the 
how-to more complete.  there will always be configurations that have special 
requirements.

one question i would like feed back on, should i keep the information on the 
older 2000 version in the how-to or does this make it to confusing?


longer term goal would be a winelib port.  for those not familliar with the 
ITC (Intellicad Technical Consortium) it has many members and it is posible 
to registar as a non-commercail member and have access to the source code.
although the licence is not GPL, X11, or BSD in nature it is a open source 
project.  this is one reason i like it.
