Hi All,
I'm came up with this idea since last year, and I'm glad to share this
idea to you today.
We tried to compile wine with clang[1], and most of the blocks have
been fixed[2]. I tried it on my computer, and wine was built
successfully, but `make test` failed.' I think wine+clang would work
fine soon.
Besides, the JavaScript engines are improving, for example, Google
V8[3], and we can expect a better performance[4].
Now, let's connect them: Why not run wine's IR with a JavaScript engine?[5]
At least, we have such benefits:
1. We can offer a online demo for wine
2. Wine can work on portable devices
3. Wine user can use the same prefix on different devices
4. We can have a better backend[6]
This is my humble idea. I'm looking forward to your reply.

Hi,
While running your changed tests on Windows, I think I found new failures.
Being a bot and all I'm not very good at pattern recognition, so I might be
wrong, but could you please double-check?
