Hi Everyone,
I'm currently working on a thesis investigating how Open Source is affected by the influence of money and the interests of commercial companies. As the WINE efforts is the foundation of companies such as Codeweavers, Transgaming and Lindows, it is interesting to study how their entrance to the scene have affected the community.

Hi Stefan
For preference can you make sure you use the full company name (ACCPAC International, Inc.) in the final thing.
My work on Wine is part of my employment at ACCPAC. Basically we have an accounting software suite that we want people to be able to run under Linux. Currently the most cost-effective way for us to do that is to do our bit to ensure that Wine handles the Windows compatibility that we require.
I find that I don't have the personal time to work on wine that others do; I am somewhat in awe of those that do.
