Open-Source software project

Hi all,

Usually, when people come here looking for free work, they get run out on a rail by some of our veteran members. Since I've been around here for about two years now, I hope that won't happen to me.

I'm currently working on a small C++ project called PastIconsFlusher. It runs on Windows XP only, and flushes the 'Past Notifications Area' in the Taskbar.

A very simple and small program, to be sure. I am using the Win32 API.

I have open-sourced it, and received some decent feedback.

Here is a download site hosting PastIconsFlusher, if you want to take a look:

http://fileforum.betanews.com/detail...r/1141525602/1

So, here's where you come in. I have had a request from a user to port this program to Windows Vista. I cannot do this.

I do not own a copy of Vista, and I will not download one. I cannot afford one at this juncture in time.

If you are a programmer of intermediate to advanced knowledge who knows the Win32 API for Vista, I would be more than happy to have you come on board and update the program for Vista.

Because this is a open-source program, I cannot pay you (nor can I afford to) That's the punchline. I just want to update this little program for Vista because I have had decent feedback on it - and maybe I could help a Vista user out.

So, if you're interested, reply here and I will PM you. If you just feel like eating me for lunch because I'm asking for free help, I guess you can do that too.

Regards,
Paul
