- pepijndevos 10y agoHow did that happen historically? In the blog post they make it sound as if they invented and built the whole concept, while you make it sound like they packaged up some open source software.
- scrollaway 10y agoWine predates crossover by a few years. The company behind crossover is CodeWeavers (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CodeWeavers https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CodeWeavers), founded and run by mostly the same Wine core developers. Crossover is a paid-for version of Wine with more patches/hackwork which may be less acceptable in the wine mainline (think of it somewhat like wine-staging: https://www.wine-staging.com/ https://www.wine-staging.com/), as well as commercial support. I really like their model. It allows Wine to thrive as a foss project and gets the project funded.
