Right, there might be legal issues for distribution, but I was thinking in term of getting a port up-and-running quick internally to validate what parts to replace moving forward.
I'm particulary interested in Wine for OS X, a plateform MainWin hasn't announced support for. We have a test version of our application up-and-running on linux in 64-bit, however, which if I'm not mistaken isn't possible with Wine at this stage. We do like the idea of customizing the app for each plateform, this is why I am interested in WineLib and having access to the source.

If you're planning on distributing this app to customers, there may be legal licensing issues involved with using those libraries. IANAL, but just thought I'd give a heads up.

Righty-o, that makes sense. If you want to get a foot in the door on OS X, wine might be just the ticket. We're looking forward to helping you kick the tires.
I hate repeating myself, but once you decide to really take the plunge, I highly recommend Codeweavers; they're terriffic (as Tony the Tiger would say). - Dan
