Suggested talk idea: Wine on ARM and Windows RT

[Juan Lang]

I'm not volunteering to do this, because I don't know anything about
it, I just thought it might appeal to folks a little outside the usual
Wine community. Andre, you willing?

Sry for the delay...
I'd volunteer if e.g. Vincent would agree to help me with that. He has a Surface Tablet and he has some experience with win8 due to working on coapp.
What i wonder is: Do we have enough to tell? And is there more to tell?

I'd certainly help, as this is very interesting to me.

I don't have a great deal of experience with win8, but maybe by FOSDEM
there will be more to talk about? For right now, it's a lot of
speculation, and the only solid thing I know we have is Andre's work
with real ARM desktop exe's on Wine.

My impression is that there aren't a lot of gaps in the RT desktop
that Wine could fill in, even if someone jailbreaks it so we can run
non-MS desktop exe's. Opengl is conspicuously absent, but we can't
help with that.

I suspect the LGPL keeps us out of the Win8 app store, so even if we
could technically help there it's probably not a real option.

Great, so i'll officially send it as "Wine on ARM and Windows RT" suggestion to Jeremy.
Further I'll try to collect the different elements and discuss it with you.

Oops, i remembered it wrongly. it's already the right mailinglist.
So ok, my guess is that we'll talk about "Wine on ARM and Windows RT" around 10 Minutes and have at least 10 Minutes of discussion.
