WineConf2017

This year WineConf was held in Wroclaw, Poland, October 28-29. I gave a presentation about my work on the AppDB on the second day of the conference.

My AppDB work focused on two broad areas, the admin controls and the test report form. The former is the most important to me, but is the least visible to others, so I enjoyed having the chance to show off some of the improvements I had made to that area.

The bulk of my talk focused on changes to the the test report form, including a demonstration of how the form now works and a discussion of my rationale for making the changes. I also talked a little about my future plans for that form, which includes making it more responsive using javascript

I ended the talk with a few stats from the new fields that I had added to the test report form:

Staging/Non-staging

June 5, 2017--October 23, 2017

 

Workarounds

August 16, 2017--October 23, 2017

 

GPU/Driver

August 25, 2017--October 23, 2017

 

The changes haven't been live for very long, so the data is limited. Next year, with a bigger sample to look at, I'll be able to do more detailed breakdowns, such as a breakdown of ratings across GPU/drivers.
