A summary of WineConf has been written and you can find it in them for of WWN issue #320.

WineConf 2006 has just about wrapped up. Approximately 35 developers convened in Reading, England for the event. A summary will follow, but for now you can check out this year's group photo (1MB).

The Wine team would especially like to thank Lars Mathiassen and the members of the Party Poker Strategy Guide for their recent donations that sponsored the event. Putting on an event of this scale without a charge for developers is quite remarkable and their generosity helped immensely.
