Like Roman I am very happy about where Wine is heading and welcome what I call the best Windows (implementation) ever. :-) I am wondering however how Wine will cope with the inherent disease that the proprietary software is suffering from: What I mean are API or even driver level workarounds for badly programmed software. Some weeks ago someone posted a mail to the Wine mailinglist where it is stated that the proprietary nvidia and ATI graphics drivers contain blacklists and workarounds for known application problems.
Granted, the free software world has its own black sheeps but I consider the situation in the proprietary world much more sick and I am happy to not have something to do with this. :-)
I am really more happy to work on stuff like GNU Classpath of which version 0.97.2 has just been released. This bugfix release contains among other remarkable things a patch that makes gjar and gjavah accept file arguments with a prepended @ sign. This undocumented behavior of the tools from OpenJDK makes it possible to build OpenJDK and PhoneME Advanced using the our tools.
Yay, another problem solved and not worked around! :-D
