Wine developers.
Mike Hearn is interviewed by Brian Vincent in the
first of our series of interviews for 2004.

TransGaming released
WineX 3.3.1
today. "WineX 3.3.1 is primarily a bug fix release. However, it also
includes a number of DirectX 9 related changes to make the present
patch level of EverQuest work, and a major reduction in sound latency."
For more information, see
the release notes.
IBM's developerWorks published
"A taste of Wine: Transition from Windows to Linux"
today.
(23 April 2004 - Google's cache still has a copy, but it's been removed from IBM's website.)
For years IBM's articles have gone in-depth on subjects and
provided more information than your average technical article. This
one is no exception and covers everything from Wine's underlying
architecture to creating a Winelib app. There's something
in there for everyone, check it out.
Onebase Linux
announced support
for Wine using a custom configuration system. Their
Wine Gallery lists applications you can run and includes MS Word View,
Sim City 3000, and Dreamweaver MX. For more information about this
Linux distro, check out
their website. Thanks to
Frank's Corner
for finding this link.
WineHQ has seen quite a few additions over the past week.
We're now able to display the
completion
of various API's from release to release.
The source to the
Wine Application Database
was released and is
available via CVS
(as well as
browsable
via LXR.) One of the first new additions linked apps
to bugs filed in
BugZilla.
The
To Do List
has seen updates from several areas, including more things bumped
into the DONE category. Finally, Mike McCormack suggested three new
fun projects
someone might be interested in tackling:
implementation of jscript.dll using Mozilla's SpiderMonkey
implementation of Image Color Management, mscms.dll, using Little CMS
implementation of cryptography functions using OpenSSL's libcrypto.so
We updated some more pages on the site. The
Who's Who
page has been rewritten. Some new names have appeared,
some old ones will be moved to an as-yet unwritten
acknowledgements page. A small update to the
introduction
page should make finding some of our resources easier to find.
TransGaming released
WineX 3.3 yesterday. This new release includes support
for Steam - Valve's peer to peer network designed to give you
the latest updates for mods such as CounterStrike, Half-Life,
and Day of Defeat. See the
release notes for more details.
Pardon our dust. We're in the midst of making some updates
to the WineHQ site. On of the things you might notice
immediately is we've changed
the
download page. We've combined source and binary
downloads on one page and listed all of the individual
packages available for various distributions. Have you
tried out
Wine lately?
